Is Your Heart in Anguish?

Is Your Heart in Anguish?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those whose hearts are in anguish. In Jesus’ name, amen.

“Ever have the urge to just fly away? David, the psalmist, did. His heart was in anguish. He was trembling. He was overwhelmed with horror.

In Psalm 55:4-8 (ESV) David says what he would do if he had wings.

“My heart is in anguish within me;
the terrors of death have fallen upon me.
Fear and trembling come upon me,
and horror overwhelms me.
And I say, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove!
I would fly away and be at rest;
yes, I would wander far away;
I would lodge in the wilderness; Selah
I would hurry to find a shelter
from the raging wind and tempest.”

Want to escape? Unable to fly away? Trust God. He will provide.

The Day of Distress?

The Day of Distress?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know you are a refuge in the day of distress. In Jesus’ amen.

Are you in distress and experiencing any of the following? Sorrow? Suffering? Anguish? Grief? Misery? Pain?

David, the psalmist, had men who wanted him dead. The two verses of Psalm 59:16-17 (ESV) show his confidence in God.

“But I will sing of your strength;
I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning.
For you have been to me a fortress
and a refuge in the day of my distress.
O my Strength, I will sing praises to you,
for you, O God, are my fortress,
the God who shows me steadfast love.”

Do you have the same response to crises? Ask God for help. God will walk with you through even the most difficult situations.
