Morning Prayer for Today - Psalm 90:14
Introduction
Every morning is a new beginning. Before you check your phone, plan your day, or start the coffee, there’s a moment—a breath—where you can meet God first. That’s what this prayer is for: a quiet space to begin again. No agenda, no pressure, just presence.
Sometimes, all we need is a reminder that we’re not walking into the day alone. God’s mercy woke us up. God’s grace will carry us through. As you pray this morning, let the words rest gently, like sunlight slowly filling a room.
Scripture
“Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, so that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.”
— Psalm 90:14 (NRSV)
Reflection
Moses’ prayer in Psalm 90 is both ancient and timeless. He asks God to satisfy the people not with success, but with love. That’s a prayer for every generation. In a world chasing satisfaction in all the wrong places, this verse calls us back to what truly fills the heart: the steadfast love of God.
Each morning we have two choices—to begin in striving or in surrender. Gratitude turns striving into peace. Prayer turns hurry into stillness. When we begin with God’s love, we begin from a place of strength.
Let this prayer shape your morning like the rhythm of breathing in grace and exhaling trust.
