Like a Weaned Child with Its Mother

Psalm 131 and the Work of Theology

O Lord, my heart is not lifted up;
    my eyes are not raised too high;
I do not occupy myself with things
    too great and too marvelous for me.
²But I have calmed and quieted my soul,
    like a weaned child with its mother;
    my soul is like the weaned child that is with me.
³ O Israel, hope in the Lord
    from this time on and forevermore.

We’re tempted …
