Mrs. Beaver:

O send out Your Light and Your truth;
   let them lead me;
Let them lead me to Your holy hill
   And to Your dwelling places.
Then I will go to the alter of God,
   To God my exceeding joy.
                                            (Psalm 43:3,4)

Only God will satisfy as my never-failing, always faithful, forever-with-me exceeding joy.

Others will fail me.
   God is my exceeding joy.
Others will disappoint me.
   God is my exceeding joy.
Others with hurt me.
   God is my exceeding joy.
Others will lie to me.
   God is my exceeding joy.
Others will betray me.
   God is my exceeding joy.
Others will steal from me.
   God is my exceeding joy.
Others will reject me.
   God is my exceeding joy.

O, God, deepen my fear of You. I long to know You better and love You more. Send out Your light and Your truth; let them lead me to You. Let Your light and Your truth lead me to a clear grasp of who You are. Then when I'm buffeted and hammered by life's challenges, I will be able to cling to You, and You alone, as my exceeding joy.
