When my heart is overwhelmed

.... lead me to the rock that is higher than I.     For You have been a shelter for me, a strong tower from the enemy. I will abide in Your tabernacle forever; I will trust in the shelter of Your wings (Psalm 61:2-4).  The crises of life, the times when our hearts are overwhelmed, these times  are crossroads.  In my own journey to faith, there were a series of crises that brought me to my knees, to the place where I finally was desperate enough to cry out to God, to admit that life was not working, and that I needed someone of something higher than I.  Twelve step programs talk about a higher power, and there are many who arrive at that very same  place I did, where they see the need of outside help. For some the higher power is the group of fellow addicts, for others it is their mother, for one man it was a cup of coffee. For me,  I was desperate enough to try God. I have always said that if He had not been real,  He would never have held me. But He is real and He did,  and He does hold me.    

My heart is overwhelmed in a different kind of way this morning. I have just come through a dry spell where I was experiencing a heaviness and disappointment,  that while not overwhelming, I was nevertheless lacking the joy of the Lord. And I had been crying out to my rock, to the One who is unchanging.  You see I have a history with this faithful One, a history where I can clearly say “You have been my shelter from the enemy.”  He has been my shelter, my strong tower, and a very present help in times of need. The group,  or the mother,  or the cup of coffee does not do this for me. When I embrace the Rock, who is  the Lord Jesus Christ,  I also have available to me all the principles of His Word, I have the exceedingly great and precious promises of the same, and when I cry out to Him in the dry times,  He does indeed lead me to Himself,  into His glorious presence. The principles, the promises and the presence. Praise the Lord!

Father, I want to thank You this morning for the rhythms of life.  Thank You Lord for the times of refreshing, that  I am feeling this morning. But thank You also for the dry times that cause me to cry out to You. Intimacy Lord is a dance, and You are Lord of the dance. Thank You  for Your faithfulness and Your consistency. I love You Lord,  and I give You praise and glory in Jesus Name Amen

  1. The Business Model Canvas reflects systematically on your business model, so you can focus on your business model segment by segment.
