Psalm 20
Posting from the Louisville airport on our way to Costa Rica – please pray for our travel safety and enjoyment.
For today’s Psalm, two of my study Bibles talked about David going to war, with the “you” pronouns in the first five verses related to peoples’ prayers for him. Then the next four verses reflect the peoples’ confidence in God’s saving acts in delivering David from his adversaries. So, given our immediate situation and doing as I like to do – putting myself into the Psalm – verse 4 struck me: May He grant you your heart’s desire and fulfill all your plans! We’re not headed to war – just the opposite! We’re looking for a relaxing two weeks away. So the thought of having our heart’s desires granted was an encouragement. I’m claiming this Psalm fully for our travels, thanking God for the timeliness of these psalms!
Prayers indeed. You’ve got ‘em! Enjoy Costa Rica and wherever else you’re traveling. Come back refreshed.
