Psalm 5:1-3 (NASB) A Psalm of David.
Give ear to my words, O LORD,
Consider my groaning.
2 Heed the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God,
For to You I pray.
3 In the morning, O LORD, You will hear my voice;
In the morning I will order my prayer to You and eagerly watch.

This morning, Psalm 5 was the beginning of my daily, chronological bible reading. Verse 3 leaped off the page. It reminded me of my writing yesterday morning. I remembered how anxious I was, yesterday, to get to work on my computer, but not to write an article to post on our website. When I prayed, I had asked God to please make a way for me to sort yet another of my computer files. I'm so close to being finished!

Then it occurred to me, on my list of things I did yesterday, in the first 2 hours of the morning, I neglected to make mention of my prayer. How could I forget prayer?! It's easy to do, but so vitally important we don't.

Psalm 5 was written by king David, and so often I can personally relate to his meditation and supplications. He really poured out his heart to God. I love the words of verse 3:

'I will order my prayer to You and eagerly watch.'

That's what I sometimes do. With expectant anticipation, I watch & wait for the Lord.

( I should do it more often ).

Notice, also, the words in italics: my prayer and eagerly

Do you know why these words are Italicized?

This is a good time to tell you about a phone app my dear sister Kayla recently told me about.
