Overwhelmed!

Psalms 61
1 O God, listen to me! Hear my prayer! 2 For wherever I am, though far away at the ends of the earth, I will cry to you for help. When my heart is faint and overwhelmed, lead me to the mighty, towering Rock of safety. 3 For you are my refuge, a high tower where my enemies can never reach me. 4 I shall live forever in your tabernacle; oh, to be safe beneath the shelter of your wings! 5 For you have heard my vows, O God, to praise you every day, and you have given me the blessings you reserve for those who reverence your name. 6 You will give me added years of life, as rich and full as those of many generations, all packed into one. 7 And I shall live before the Lord forever. Oh, send your loving-kindness and truth to guard and watch over me, 8 and I will praise your name continually, fulfilling my vow of praising you each day. TLB

This is a good time to throw ourselves on the Lord! Many things can cause us to be overwhelmed. It may be the small things of life that slowly add up until we are covered up and cannot see our way out. It could be illness or financial crises due to the recent global economic woes. It does not matter which category we may fall under, God is still our help in "Times Like These".

Call Him up right now! You will find His line is not busy. You will not be put "On Hold" as happens so often today when we seek help by telephone. He is an ever present help in our times of need. If fact, it is possible in a relatively short period of time to move from being "overwhelmed" by the troubles of the world over to the Hallelujah side in which we can become "overwhelmed" by God's Goodness and Powerful Holy Presence.

Go ahead and praise Him for the answer even before you can see it coming. God is good all the time!

God bless you as you Pray and Praise!
