Psalm 63:1 O God, you are my God, I seek you, my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. 2 So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. 3 Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. 4 So I will bless you as long as I live; I will lift up my hands and call on your name. 5 My soul is satisfied as with a rich feast, and my mouth praises you with joyful lips…
This psalm reflects such a longing and hunger for the Lord. I’m particularly drawn to v.5 “My soul is satisfied as with a rich feast…”. It reflects a satisfaction on the inside, a spirit that is at peace and does not want. It’s the kind of satisfaction that money can’t buy which only the Lord can give. It’s what we seek in a time of fasting as we ask the Lord to fill us with spiritual food. Lord let it be so. Amen.
