Overwhelmed and Lost
"An God I run into Your arms
Unashamed because of mercy
I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed by You"
Here lately, I have found myself very lost, confused and overwhelmed... I'm striving so hard to hear His voice. Trying hard to quiet my thoughts to feel his guidance... I'm afraid to make a bad choice when it comes to my direction in life. I feel a strong pull to live my life for Him and Him only and live it alone.
I feel beaten down right now, unloved by man... I realize that His love is all that really matters, but I also struggle with the fact that we were also made for companionship. In that area of life, my thoughts and dreams were completely shattered in my last marriage and is compounded with the failures of my two previous marriages that failed due to earthly struggles that involved selfishness, human weakness, society pressures and satan's pressures to live life for oneself instead of abiding by God's laws.
I feel being led to live my life committed to only God.
This morning's prayer
Father, I pray that You might give me a heart of wisdom. I pray that I will always make wise choices; and when two paths seem to be equal, I pray You will help me to trust You even as I make my decision. Give me a heart that is willing to obey You, to respond in faith to the wisdom You give me.
I pray that I may have a heart of wisdom. Keep me from ungodly counsel that seems good, but which will, in the end, be destructive. Keep me from following the path of least resistance, and from friends who would lead me astray. Even as you teach me, that the wise path is often the most difficult path, but in the end, it's the most rewarding. Direct my paths, O Lord, for I am like a sheep who is prone to stray. Make me a lover of wisdom.
In Jesus name, Amen
Like a trampled spring and a polluted well
Is a righteous man who gives way before the wicked.
It is not good to eat much honey,
Nor is it glory to search out one's own glory.
Like a city that is broken into and without walls
Is a man who has no control over his spirit.
