Inspiration
Have you been in a situation where you were unable to help yourself and felt a sense of desperation? Have you been deep in trouble, and it seems like there's no way out? Usually, ego makes it quite difficult for humans to seek help when in trouble or distress. Our ability to be creative in finding solutions to our problems sometimes gives us the notion that we are self-sufficient and self-dependent. However, when we realize that we have hit rock bottom, we tend to exhibit desperation in our call for help. Overwhelming situations have a way of exposing our vulnerabilities and humbling us, which helps break the defense that our ego has built around us. The above verse is a desperate plea for help, a cry for attention coming from a strong desire to be heard by God. It is a plea made out of humbleness of heart without a sense of self-righteousness and arrogance. When we are overwhelmed with life issues and get tired, we can turn to God to save us. Many times, because we need help urgently, we get into panic mode when we don't get an immediate response and assume that God does not hear us. God certainly hears us, every unsaid request and the most secret desire of our hearts, and will answer in His own good time.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You because You hear and answer my prayers. I am thankful that I can pour out my troubles and frustrations at Your feet, and You will take them all away. I am glad that nothing is impossible for You to do. Help me to be less self-righteous when approaching You with my heart desires and to trust in Your generosity and power to give me more than I can ever imagine or ask for. Because of Your mercy, You will bear me when I call and send me answers. In the name of Your Son, I give You thanks. Amen.
