Thoughts for another day

December 7, 2006

Today's verse: Ps 42:7. Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: (KJV)

My heart is in trouble Lord. Despair has set in. Frustration is rising as smoke that rises as oil burns. Where do I turn Lord? Whom do I call? Look Lord, Thy servant is in pain and life isn’t going right at the moment.

Every promise is remembered Lord. Every thought is toward You. My heart is really conscious of You and talking to You yet, Lord, darkness seems to be the only answer. Tell you something Lord, my whole being is in turmoil and frankly, I yearn to be with You, not in the same way as Paul desired – he did because, He knew how good it is with You – but I Lord, want to be with you so I can escape the sorrow of my soul. I want to be with You because I have become too weak. I want to be with You so I can deflect the darts of temptation to which I succumb all the time. Master, I want to escape because my body is also in pain.

Lord, my heart calls out to You. I want to pour out my tale to You. You said come to Me all who are weary and I did come Lord. I don’t know whether my coming was partial or full, I think it was full, but somehow Lord, I ain’t finding solace. What do I do Lord.

Once again I turn my face to you Lord. I implore You to cast but one glance at me. Lord, today don’t go by me but Master if Thou love me the way You say You do, then hold me close. Today Lord, let me feel Your love and experience Your mercy. And then I will tell my soul: Rejoice for thy Creator has come to save you.
