Psalm 34: 4-6
I prayed to the LORD, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears. Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces. In my desperation I prayed, and the LORD listened; he saved me from all my troubles.
These are more than just words in a book.
Two nights ago we were in the middle of a life altering event. Handled incorrectly, this event would have changed our lives and not for the better. This problem was not my area of expertise, so I was left with little to do but watch and wait while my partner worked on the problem, gathering data, documentation and so on. While I waited I started to pray. At first, I just asked for help, from God, from Jesus, then I asked for revelation. I asked for revelation, I asked God to show us the way out of this mess, to tell me what we need to do, and I continued to pray. After some time I just felt that it was ok to stop, so I relaxed sat down and waited as my partner continued on into the night working on her end. While I waited, and silently rebuked the doubt that tried to fill my head with lies and negativity our answer came in an instant. In an instant God gave us the answer we needed to guide us out of that mess. In my desperation I prayed and the LORD listened; he saved us from our trouble, again.
