A prayer for a difficult day

As I was doing a search through the Bible for scriptures on water and watering, the Lord highlighted this one for me. Sometimes in a dry and hot season of life, only the Word of God is needed. Perhaps it will speak to you too:

Psalm 42:1-8

"As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God.

My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God?

My tears have been my food day and night, while men say to me all day long, "Where is your God?"

These things I remember as I pour out my soul: how I used to go with the multitude, leading the procession to the house of God, with shouts of joy and thanksgiving among the festive throng.

Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. My soul is downcast within me; therefore I will remember you from the land of the Jordan, the heights of Hermon—from Mount Mizar.

Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me.

By day the LORD directs his love, at night his song is with me -

a prayer to the God of my life. "


May God's waterfalls of refreshment fall over you today, my friend.

In His Love,

Glynnis
