Psalm 88 Prayer
God,
[SIZE=11pt]In my desperation, I cry out to you.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Dark feelings are sweeping over me.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Dark thoughts are sweeping over me.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]I am being swept into awful places.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Where is the light of your help?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Where?[/SIZE]
God,
I am caught in despair.
Trouble is everywhere.
I plead with you.
Lead me OUT of this darkness.
Lead me OUT of this feeling of isolation.
Lead me OUT of this pain.
Lead me OUT of ALL of this...
Rescue me... Today!
God,
My life makes no sense.
Where is your goodness?
This is too hard.
-
Today I feel
DESPERATE
for your will
to make sense.
-
Today I feel
DESPERATE
to see your
goodness
in the land of the living.
-
Today I feel
DESPERATE
to change things.
-
What sense does this make?
[SIZE=11pt]Where is your goodness?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Where?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11pt]Where is your help?[/SIZE]

We cannot hide our heart from God.
He knows the deepest feelings
and the deepest thoughts that we have.
~
Do not be afraid
to speak to God.
~
Do not be afraid to shout out your pain.
~
Do not be afraid to question God.
~
- - Just….Just….don’t walk away from God. - -
He is the one who will eventually
lead you out of this mess.
At some point during each difficult day,
God will reach out to you
to give you the opportunity
to choose to
firmly decide
to draw close to God
no matter what
is happening in your life.
-
If you refuse him day after day,
you will grow lukewarm and distant
from the one who loves you
with an everlasting love.
So, let it, in His arms, let all go and be set free, Amen
