Christian Reflection and Prayer

Scripture:

"Save me, O God, for the flood waters are up to my neck.
Deeper and deeper I sink into the mire; I can't find a foothold to stand on.
I am in deep water, and the floods overwhelm me.
I am exhausted from crying for help; my throat is parched and dry.
My eyes are swollen with weeping, waiting for my God to help me…
But I keep right on praying to you, Lord, hoping this is the time you will show me favor".
Psalm 69:1-3, 13 NLT

Reflection:

Actually this prayer of David's in this psalm is telling us,
"Save me, I'm sinking". Here we see a very desperate
David who can't even think of helping himself. But at
least David knew whom he needs to ask for help.
Although he was exhausted from crying to the Lord in
prayer, he kept on shouting to his God, the only one
who could see him.
When the waves of adversity threaten to drown you in
despair, PRAY TO GOD. Remember David's persistence.
AND KEEP ON ASKING GOD FOR HELP!

Prayer:

Dear Lord, I am exhausted from crying for help, but I
will keep on praying to You. I know that you are there
for me. I know that you are the only one that can
really see me.
