From the Ends of the Earth?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who call to you from the end of the earth. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Many of the psalms are a desperate plea to get God’s attention. God is responsive, but not always the way we hope or expect.
In Psalm 61:1-4 (ESV) David, the psalmist, is crying out and calling to god. He knows God has the power to protect him. God has been faithful in the past.
“Hear my cry, O God,
listen to my prayer;
from the end of the earth I call to you
when my heart is faint.
Lead me to the rock
that is higher than I,
for you have been my refuge,
a strong tower against the enemy.
Let me dwell in your tent forever!
Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings! Selah.”
Do you want God to hear your plea? Have confidence. God was a refuge for the psalmist. Trust he will be the same for you.
