O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation; rescue
me from deceitful and wicked men. You are God my stronghold.
Why have you rejected me? Why must I go about mourning,
oppressed by the enemy? Send forth your light and your
truth, let them guide me; let them bring me to your holy
mountain, to the place where you dwell. Then will I go to
the altar of God, to God, my joy and my delight. I will
praise you with the harp, O God, my God. Why are you
downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your
hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my
God.

Psalm 43:1-5
"God, my joy and my delight." That line really stood out to me this morning. I definitely don't view God like this 98% of the time! I'm so wrapped up in finding "joy" in worldly things...I throw God in the back seat and try to tackle the world on my own. Lord, help me to look to You and only You for my joy and my delight Forgive me for putting the world before you so often!
