Fears and Tears

This past week I have slipped into fear and anxiety, waking during the night feeling unsettled and having a difficult time focusing. I am finding it difficult to wade through all the thoughts that bombard me and the feeling of peace has escaped me.

I sit with the Lord this morning for about an hour in silence. I wait and then He speaks to me with a title of a song “Shepherd Me, O God”, a song that I recognize and is familiar. I seek out this song on the internet, listening to its words and I am immediately overcome with tears. The lyrics of the song speaks deeply to my heart and offers me comfort that I so longed to hear. I am grateful to the Lord for this gift.

May the Lord speak to your heart today and bring comfort and peace to your day. The Lord is my Shepherd, there is nothing I lack. Psalm 23
