Lord, you have assigned me my portion and my cup; you have made my lot secure.
The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance.
Psalm 16:5-6 NIV
You have assigned me my portion. This package has my name on it — the exact provisions and quantities are there. If I take the path you have designed for me — according to your instructions, without chasing after lies, without insisting on more or longing for different, I will succeed in living a rich and fulfilled life.
Stay focused — do not give in to insecurity, greed, lust for power or glory.
Simply inventory my provisions and follow you.
There is something freeing and immensely satisfying about beating the temptation to wish for what is not mine.
