Almighty God, please help us to know you truly as we open your word. Help us to marvel at your character for there are often many other things that flood our thoughts and hearts, leaving us underwhelmed and frustrated with life. We mull over the difficulties of life, or obsess over lesser loves though you outshine them all, glorious and utterly holy, beyond us in every way, and yet able to be known truly through your word by the work of your Spirit. Help us to revel in your good word to us and relate to you with joy and delight. May we be satisfied in you. Lord, we rejoice in Christ, your Word made flesh, your Son, knowing that it is only through him that we come to you. May we delight in you, and rejoice in Christ more and more each day.
Amen
