Behold our shield, O God; look on the face of your anointed! For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness. For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor. No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly. O LORD of hosts, blessed is the one who trusts in you!
LORD, what a comfort to know that You do not withhold any good thing from me when I am walking according to Your Word. I must accept that there are times that I desire something that You do not grant; it can be difficult to accept that sometimes my desires are not in my best interests. Help me to accept that as a major component of trusting You in all things.
