In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation. Psalm 5:3 (NIV)
My reflection of the verse
Everyday of our lives from the moment we wake up until we go to sleep we always receive God's mercy. It's a wonderful blessing that we are given the chance to do the things that He wants us to do. So, starting our day with a prayer of thanksgiving is a nice way of thanking God for this great blessing. We may also include in our prayers the things we need or want. God hears our prayers and whatever His answer to our prayers we should be able to accept them. The answer maybe yes or no. But even if God says no, we should try to understand that it is for our own good. We expect that God will heed our request but sometimes we have to face reality that not all prayer requests are granted because God has a reason why His answer is not positive. But it doesn't mean that we will not pray anymore just because we were disappointed with His answer. We need to pray to Jesus because He always hears us whatever it is that we pray for.
