I am not as patient nor as tuned into the Lord as David was. I wish it were true that I waited patiently for the Lord to help me but it was really that the Lord was the patient one. He was quietly knocking on my heart's door offering His help. He knew my need before I did and has been there gently leading me to solid ground.
Psalm 40:1-3
1 I waited patiently for the Lord to help me, and he turned to me and heard my cry.
2 He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along.
3 He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what he has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the Lord.
Isaiah 43:2
ReplyDeleteWhen you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you.
Another helpful one.
It is so easy for me to see the waters and the rivers and the fires and take my eyes off the Lord. Thank you Becky!
