What happens when you hit the wall? When you completely run out of fuel? When you are utterly emotionally, physically, and spiritually spent?
You might be tempted to ignore the problem, distract yourself from it, or medicate it away.
But what if instead, you bring your lament to the Lord and trust Him to comfort and mend…
1 How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?
2 How long must I wrestle with my thoughts
and day after day have sorrow in my heart?
How long will my enemy triumph over me?3 Look on me and answer, Lord my God.
Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death,
4 and my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,”
and my foes will rejoice when I fall.5 But I trust in your unfailing love;
my heart rejoices in your salvation.
6 I will sing the Lord’s praise,
for he has been good to me.Psalm 13 (NIV)
