Read Psalm 63:1-8

63 O God, you are my God,

and I long for you.

My whole being desires you;

like a dry, worn-out, and waterless land,

my soul is thirsty for you.

²Let me see you in the sanctuary;

let me see how mighty and glorious you are.

³Your constant love is better than life itself,

and so I will praise you.

⁴I will give you thanks as long as I live;

I will raise my hands to you in prayer.

⁵My soul will feast and be satisfied,

and I will sing glad songs of praise to you.

⁶As I lie in bed, I remember you;

all night long I think of you,

⁷because you have always been my help.

In the shadow of your wings I sing for joy.

⁸I cling to you,

and your hand keeps me safe.

"My whole being desires you; like a dry, worn out, and waterless land, my soul is thirsty for you."

Jesus says that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness are blessed.

Lord give me a passionate hunger for your love and your presence.
