Overwhelmed

Have you ever been completely overwhelmed by so much information about God that you literally felt like you were suffocating?

I'm there.

After a lengthy discussion with a friend last night, my brain is hurting just thinking about the magnitude and might of the Lord and my heart is hurting with the fear of missing Him. Right now all I want to do is get alone with God and search the scriptures for myself, seeking the Holy Spirit to illuminate His Word and make it real in the deepest parts of my soul.

I'm so thankful for godly friends who are passionate about the Lord and His amazingness. They inspire, uplift, correct, challenge, convict and bless me over and over again.

"Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer. From the end of the earth I will cry to You, when my heart is overwhelmed lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For You have been a shelter for me, a strong tower from the enemy." -Psalm 61:1-3

(Cut and Pasted)...Lam 3:21 Yet this I call to mind
and therefore I have hope:

22 Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.

23 They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.

24 I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion;
therefore I will wait for him."

25 The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him,
to the one who seeks him;

26 it is good to wait quietly
for the salvation of the LORD.

27 It is good for a man to bear the yoke
while he is young.

28 Let him sit alone in silence,
for the LORD has laid it on him.

I'm praying for you!
