Crying for help

Will You help me?

Crying for You

Will You come?

Crying like the weeping prophet Jeremiah

Will You care?

I need Your comfort

I need Your kindness

 

If not today, I know one day. You will wipe away all tears.

I know for right now, You fill me up with the joy of Your salvation.

 

You are better than new wine

You are better than the rise of the day that springs

 

When I rest and sleep for another night

Sleep comes so easily

You have set Your Shalom-peace all around

 

Psalms 4

 

Thoughts For you:

 

There are questions of injustice that we may ask. Do you come to prayer and seek God? Can you say that “I will trust in God?” Psalms 4:8 says, “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for You alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety.” Can you say that God is the One who provides your safety?
