Wake up call

This morning, as the rain poured down hard on our roof and I laid in my bed, thinking and counting the moments until my alarm went off, I was reminded of a verse that I really heard for the first time my senior year in high school. It's Psalm 5:3, and reflecting on it made me smile today.

"In the morning, O Lord, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests
before you and wait in expectation."


Or as the New American Standard version puts it,

"In the morning, O Lord, You will hear my voice;
In the morning I will order my prayer
to you and eagerly watch."


Well, I'm eagerly watching, even waiting in expectation, but I'm not sure what I'm really watching or waiting for. I can only trust that I'll know it when I see it.
