The Lord is always with me…during the good times as well as the bad. Even when I forget about Him…He’s still there. He’s as close as my next breath or my next heart beat. God’s right there to advise and show me His plan and purpose for my life. And when the waves of life come crashing down on me…I grasp onto His strong right hand…and hold on.

Psalm 73: 21-22 ” When my heart was grieved and my spirit embittered, I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before You.”
The Psalmist realized that anguish and despair changes us…that bitter suffering and grief makes us numb, irrational, and at times irresponsible for word or deed…even when addressing God. The Psalmist freely admitted that he was far from the person he usually was. And we, like the Lord, must remember then that grief effects everyone and that the same grace and mercy He extends, we must also.
Psalm 46:10 ” Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
When was the last time you were quiet before the Lord? No hurried laundry list of a prayer…no whining to Him about all the injustices you’ve endured…just disarmed silence, and one simple request to Him. “Show me Your glory Lord.”
