Thursday

I am having a hard dealing with life. I don't want to do much of anything. I don't know what to read in my Bible or what to pray. I am thankful the the Holy Spirit will intercede on my behalf at times like these.

I just typed in Psalm 46 in the Bible Gateway search engine because I didn't know where else to go or what else to read.

Psalm 46
1 God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
3 though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. Selah
4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells.
5 God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.
6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts. 7 The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah 8 Come and see the works of the LORD , the desolations he has brought on the earth.
9 He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth; he breaks the bow and shatters the spear, he burns the shields with fire.
10 "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth."
11 The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah

Honestly-I am having trouble being still and "knowing" that God is God. In my head I know, I guess I just can't trust God in my heart right now. I don't understand. I must press on.
