It has been a rough week. And aside from a decent Mother’s Day, I can’t say the weekend was much better. Saturday was not my most shining moment as a father or a husband. And I continue to wrestle with God about my relationship with Him…it just isn’t what I think it should be (which very well may be the problem). I feel David did in Psalm 22:1-2: “My God, my God, why have you abandoned me? Why are you so far away when I groan for help? Every day I call to you, my God, but you do not answer. Every night you hear my voice, but I find no relief.”
This morning I poured it all out to God. I got brutally honest. With God, but mostly with myself. As I spent time in God’s Word (after asking Him to speak to me and help me listen better) this is the word I got:
The Lord keeps you from harm and watches over your life.
The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.
Psalm 121:7-8, NLT
He’s watching. And He cares. It doesn’t matter if I feel it (although it’s becoming a struggle)…He IS watching. And He DOES care. For today, that’s enough.
