One of the things i struggle with the most as a christian is sharing my struggles. I mean, sharing my struggles with ANYONE. Even though i know God knows everything, i struggle telling him my struggles. Call it pride, or whatever you want either way, it is a struggle of mine. When you finally admit to your wrong doings, you feel great. There is relief that comes on you and weight that gets taken off your back.
Fact:
Lots of us have been carrying weight and have become accustomed to it, therefore we forgot what relief is really like.
Fact:
That doesn't mean we should continue this way, but instead we should find a way to get rid of the guilt and shame.
Psalm 139 is a psalm that is very close to my heart, and has helped me many times. How nice is it to know that God is always there for you? Better yet, how nice is it to know that he knew you, before you knew yourself? That he created you and no matter how much you screw up ... he didn't make a mistake. You are uniquely made and you are the work of God's hands.
This psalm has helped me to realize that no matter what my problems are ... God has an answer. No matter how low i've gone and sinned ... God didn't make a mistake and he loves me. God knows all my problems and has solutions. He is just waiting for me to come to him and share it with him. No matter what the issue is God will forgive and give you hope. There is a lot of people in this world who will go the rest of their lives w/o knowing what Psalm 139 has to share. Considered yourselves blessed.
When I awake,
I am still with you
AND he works round the clock! What more can you ask for?
