My wonderful Counselor: my heart is heavy, yet You are my celebration and my Refuge. I have just created an image based on Galatians 6:9, and my heart feels wounded; the space in my chest seems too small to contain the emotional swelling of my heart. I quote Psalm 13:1:
“How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me?” (Psalms 13:1 AMP).
Wonderful Counselor, guide me in the steps of this tortuous path I am traveling. I feel my belly like a balloon half-filled with water, shifting from side to side; the wound in my heart feels like a sea tossing my fragile vessel.
Psalm 69:13 ESV
I feel the tears of my soul, yet You are my Comforter and my sure Help. Your grace strengthens me so I do not lose faith, even when circumstances make my mind spin. You are Love; therefore, Love never gives up. You fill the wound in my heart with hope and strength.
“Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.” (1 Cor. 13:7 NLT)
Holy Spirit, why do I feel this faint sadness lingering in the corners of my soul? Is it because You are turning my sorrow into joy? Joy comes in the morning. Has my night ended?
“So you have sorrow now, but I will see you again; then you will rejoice, and no one can rob you of that joy.” (John 16:22 NLT)
“For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime! Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning.” (Psalms 30:5 NLT).
The darkest part of the night is: when the Sun is about to rise.
