Read Psalm 63:1-11. King David is aching remembering God as he can't sleep at night. He finds hope because he is in "the shadow of God's wings." Of what is this a picture? When do you feel safe like a baby bird hidden under its mother's wings?

Biblical Prayer Focus:
Luke 18:13 But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, “God, be merciful to me, a sinner!” I tell you, this man went down to his house justified, rather than the other. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.

Humble yourself before the Lord and confess any sins that the Spirit has convicted you of. Ask God to remove any vestiges of self-righteousness from your life.
