God, be gracious to us and bless us and let Your face shine upon us. – Ps 67:2

Reflection.  In Hebrew, God’s face shining upon a person means that he is smiling and approving of you.  When a “face shines” it is an idiom for a smile.  What a lovely thought.  God is smiling at you right now.

Prayer.  Dear Lord, how grateful I am for Your gracious smile. Â
