A Steadfast Heart

My heart is steadfast, O God,
my heart is steadfast;
I will sing and make music.
Awake, my soul!
Awake, harp and lyre!
I will awaken the dawn.
I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations;
I will sing of you among the peoples.
For great is your love, reaching to the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth. ~Psalm 57:7-11

My heart tonight. I want my heart to be fixed and firm on God. I am ready to move. I am ready to receive His heart into my own. This week has been very peaceful for me. I pray that I allow this peace to continue; only I can  remove His peace in my life. 
"I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations" Tonight I pray for my missionary friends. Some who are just beginning a new place in life, some who have been gone from the simple American life for years. I praise my Maker for them and the work they are doing. I desire to one day join them but am thankful for where God has me now; in a place of prayer for them, preparing my own heart for when my time comes.
 
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. ~Phil. 4:6
