Psalm 86:1-7Bend an ear, God; answer me. I’m one miserable wretch! Keep me safe—haven’t I lived a good life? Help your servant—I’m depending on you!You’re my God; have mercy on me. I count on you from morning to night. Give your servant a happy life; I put myself in your hands!You’re well-known as good and forgiving, bighearted to all who ask for help. Pay attention, God, to my prayer; bend down and listen to my cry for help.Every time I’m in trouble I call on you, confident that you’ll answer.Who listens to me everyday all day? God, that’s who! He hears me. He answers my call every time.Lord, hear my cry today. Listen close to my cries and my groans. Forgive me for all my sins and cleanse my heart.Keep me safe today as I walk on the path you have chosen. Hold me close and guide me through this day. Point out to me opportunities to work for you. Show me what to avoid. Help me to listen to you.I count on you every morning and every night. I need your help every hour of the day. I put myself in your hands. You are always here for me.
