Trust in Him at all times, you people;
Pour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah--Psalm 62:8
Often, I go through my day looking and hoping in wrong things. My heart looks for fulfillment and joy where it will never be found. As it says in Jeremiah, I hewn for myself cisterns...broken cisterns that can hold no water and I forget the fountain of living waters! I wonder as David did in Psalm 42:
Why are you cast down, O my soul?
And why are you disquieted within me?
In my self-sufficiency, Father, I am in distress...every hand of misery comes against me. But, You, my God, because I am Your beloved...You bow down toward me and speak to my heart You draw me to Yourself with gentle cords of love. You remind me to come...to cast all my care upon You because it is only in You that my soul finds its rest.
