PSALM 130:5-6 His Master's Voice

I wait for the Lord, my soul waits
and in his word I hope.                                   Psalm 130:5 ESV

Many  schools of spirituality meet here.

Behold , as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their  master
as the eyes of the maidservant to the hand of her mistress,
so our eyes look to the Lord our God.            Psalm 123:2 ESV

Ready to spring into action, the eyes and ears of the sheepdog
focus on his master.
Everybody who cares, listens to the word of God in scripture--
eagerly and studiously--it is part of who we are.
But the psalmist and his soul wait for the Lord.
Like sheepdogs wait for their master's bidding.

My soul waits for the Lord
more than watchmen for the morning,
more than watchmen for the morning.          Psalm 130:6 ESV
