“The Lord protects the simple-hearted; when I was in great need, he saved me.” Psalm 116:6
Great need... that seems to be my life theme for some time now. I’m living more and more in complete dependence on the Lord. That’s a good thing and I’m glad about that. Living in such a place can be extremely challenging though. I feel like I’m sitting in a school desk before the Lord and He is teaching me and molding me more into His likeness. Like I’ve said before... that’s a good place to be, just hard sometimes. I again am tempted to take my eyes off of my Lord and put them on my circumstances (they are screaming for attention!). I just can’t afford to do that... I just can’t. How would I ever survive in such a way? I simply can’t and don’t want to live with my eyes on earthly things. Sooooo... by HIS grace I will keep my eyes upon Him. I have to... otherwise I would be consumed by my own desires and the ways of the world and I couldn’t stand that. I love the Lord so much and desire His will above mine at all times. There is such joy in living in the light of His Presence and I don’t want to miss a moment of being with Him. Thank You so much, my Lord, for making that possible and for being my Emmanuel, God with me all the time. Praise You, Lord!
