I am weary with my groaning; All night I make my bed swim; I drench my couch with my tears. The Lord has heard the voice of my weeping. The Lord has heard my supplication; The Lord will receive my prayer.
Psalm 6:1-10
Prayer~
Lord, I praise You. Your name is excellent and most worthy to be praised. I love your presence and I love to spend time with You. Thank you for this time to be together now. Is there anything that is in between us Lord? I am so sorry for my sin. Please forgive me for my sin. My sin of omission (not doing the things I should) and my sin of commission (the things I do wrong). Please speak to me now from Your Word, I pray in Jesus name. Amen.
Scripture says there are times in our lives when we are weak. Our bones are troubled. It's another way of saying we may experience great problems. ("My soul is also greatly troubled".) There are times in our lives when grief is too much to bear. It causes us to cry. And cry. And cry. Until we have no energy left to cry. God understands and cares about our tears!!
Scripture also teaches that God does not rebuke us in anger, nor does he chasten us in hot displeasure. His patience with us is amazing. He is longsuffering, slow to anger and rich in love!!! He promises to heal us. He promises to return and deliver us. He promises to save us. I take comfort in knowing that the LOrd hears the cries of my weeping. He also hears all my requests of Him.
When I have troubles, whatever they may be, I can know that God is aware. He sees everything. If I am at work and having difficulties in a particular area, God sees. God knows!! I don't cry and suffer alone, but God is with me. Whatever problems we may have, God knows. God invites us into relationship with Him. He welcomes our prayers about everything. We can tell him about our problems. We can open our hearts to Him. As we pour out our hearts to God, He holds us in His arms. He whispers into our ears, "you are precious to me, daughter." "You are precious to me, son." We don't have to worry about our troubles, for He promises to save and deliver us. In His time. In His way. We let him carry the load of our problems today and every day.
Prayer~
Lord, I pray that You help us live lives that are pleasing to You. Please help us with our problems. We know You love us, and have not forgotten about us. We love You Jesus. Amen.
