Psalm 63

As David wrote this psalm, I believe he was totally physically exhausted. He was thirsty in the desert of Judah (verse 1c). Despite this physical state of his, David could still remember the past goodness of God. He began to praise God & give thanks to Him.

He described His soul as being satisfied with the richest of food when he has deep fellowship with God.


In this season of fasting & praying, I knew that my body really craves for physical food during meal times. But this psalm really reminded me that above all, spiritual food is what that matters. I really want to fast a meal a day & deny my flesh. God, help me.


Things to ponder
1. How has the fasting being for you? Give a rating 1 to 10 (10 means it's great!)
2. What are some difficulties in fasting a meal a day? Give at least 2.
3. Pray & commit to the Lord. Ask of Him to satisfy you spiritually as you deny yourself physically.
