Prayers from the Bible

  

Song of Quiet Trust

O Lord, my heart is not lifted up,
   my eyes are not raised too high;
I do not occupy myself with things
   too great and too marvellous for me.
But I have calmed and quieted my soul,
   like a weaned child with its mother;
   my soul is like the weaned child that is with me.

O Israel, hope in the Lord
   from this time on and for evermore.

Psalm 131

 

Sometimes it is helpful just to read and re-read a passage, and let it settle in your heart. This is such a passage.
