2. "My soul thirsts for You; my flesh longs for you in a
dry and thirsty land where there is no water" (v. 1,
NKJV).
Next, David longs for the comfort of God's presence as
you would long for a drink in the dry desert. This truly
shows the heart of someone who loves the Lord above
all. It is no wonder that God called him a "man after
God's own heart." You might think that David would cry
out for God to restore his position and undo all the
unfair, hurtful situations he was facing. But David
knew that above all else, the most important thing in
life was to be in God's presence, because that's where
true joy was found. "Thou wilt make known to me the
path of life; in Thy presence is fullness of joy…" (Psalm
16:11).
3. "So I have looked for You in the sanctuary, to see Your
power and Your glory" (v. 2, NKJV).
David is now asking God that he would be able to see
Him and worship Him in the desert, without the ark of
the covenant, as he did in the tabernacle. He now knew
that God's presence wasn't limited to buildings or certain
times of formal worship. So he asked to see God's
power and glory right where he was. Isn't that what we
need to do when we are in a desert?
