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.

A Tradition of Faith?

A Tradition of Faith?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those whose families passed down a tradition of faith.

Not everyone grows up in a household of faith. For those who were raised in godly homes, and became believers, most rejoice God not only saved Israel, but he also saved one or more of their family members.

Psalm 22:4-5 pays homage to this history:

“In you our fathers trusted; they trusted,
and you delivered them.
To you they cried and were rescued;
in you they trusted and were not put to shame.”

If you are new to walking with the Lord, praise God. You have the privilege of starting a new line of believers. One day a descendent may read Psalm 22 and give thanks for their family’s tradition of faith.
