“Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.”
Psalm 90:14
There’s something uniquely peaceful about a Saturday morning. The world slows down. The alarm doesn’t scream at us. There’s space to breathe. And often, in that stillness, our hearts start to speak. Sometimes it’s exhaustion. Sometimes it’s gratitude. Sometimes it’s a quiet ache we’ve ignored all week. That’s what makes Psalm 90:14 such a powerful reminder.
The psalmist isn’t asking for more strength, more time, or more resources. He’s asking for something deeper: to be satisfied in the morning with God’s love. Not satisfied with a good meal or a little extra rest—but with something lasting. Something eternal. Something that doesn’t fade when the errands start piling up or the texts start coming in.
God’s love is the one thing that can satisfy the human soul in a way nothing else can. It’s not seasonal. It doesn’t fluctuate based on your performance or your productivity. It doesn’t change when the plans fall through or the world disappoints you. It simply is—strong, steady, and unfailing.
When we start our day—especially a day like Saturday—rooted in that love, something shifts. Joy rises. Gratitude stirs. Peace grows. Not because everything around us is perfect, but because we’ve been reminded of what truly matters.
This verse is not just a prayer—it’s a pattern. It teaches us to seek satisfaction in the morning—first, before anything else. Before we open our inbox. Before we check the headlines. Before the noise begins. It teaches us to start with God’s love and let everything else flow from there.
If your week has been chaotic, or your heart feels stretched thin, let this Saturday be your reset. Let the quiet moments be filled with something deeper than rest—let them be filled with the presence of God.
He’s not waiting for you to clean yourself up. He’s waiting to satisfy you with His love. And from that place? Joy returns. Gladness follows.
God bless you all.
