Something Greater

Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am alone and afflicted. The distresses of my heart increase; bring me out of my sufferings. Fear and trembling grip me. I complain and groan morning, noon, and night. Consider my affliction and trouble, and forgive all my sins. Make your ways known to me, LORD; teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; I wait for you all day long. Remember, LORD, your compassion and your faithful love, for they have existed from the beginning. Do not remember the sins of my youth or my acts of rebellion; in keeping with your faithful love, remember me because of your goodness, LORD. A Prayer based upon Psalms 25, 55, 85, 115, 145 // Milt Reynolds Photo by Henock Arega on Unsplash

How long will I store up anxious concerns within me, agony in my mind every day? How long will worries, threats, weakness, and frustration dominate me?  Why, my soul, are you so dejected? Why are you in such turmoil? Put your hope in God, for He is our Savior and our God! LORD my God, restore brightness to my eyes. I know that I am always with you; you hold my right hand. You guide me with your counsel. You have promised me a home with you in glory. I desire nothing on earth but you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but you, my God, are the strength of my heart, my portion forever. As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who trust in him only and ever.  In you alone, God my Father, do I place my hope.
