I've been up since 5:30..my thoughts will not allow my body to rest. I need Jesus. I need His Word. "The Lord is close to those who are broken-hearted and crushed in spirit". I believe what Psalm 34:18 says. I am encouraged by Psalm 37:34 that tells me "Don't be impatient for the Lord to act! Travel steadily along this path."
I know that your servant David identifies with my struggle as he says "I love them, but they try to destroy me-even as I am praying for them. They return evil for good and hatred for my love." Psalm 109:4,5
Gotta be honest here...sometimes ministry rocks me to my core and causes me to examine the very foundations of my faith.
Psalm 43:2 says it perfectly, "You are my God, my only safe haven." Truly, where else can I go?
Like Psalm 35:8 states, I HAVE tasted of the Lord, and I KNOW HE IS GOOD. There is JOY for those who trust in HIM.
