Thank you so much for this devotional. There is nothing like the word of God to make things more clear when one is in the depths of their own personal pit. The word of God gives me hope. I am in the midst of battling anxiety, panic attacks and depression. The mornings are the hardest for me. I’ve had terrible insomnia and disturbed sleep. I have two beautiful children that I have to help get ready and take care of in the mornings as well as throughout the day. I have had to re-learn how to completely trust and rely on God instead of myself. I am at the point now where I can finally accept things as they are and consider it a testing of my faith and an opportunity to learn and grow for the glory of God. I did not realize until yesterday that while I was waiting on Him, He was really waiting on me. And while I was not patient with Him, He was very patient with me. Things were very, very rough for awhile until I learned to let go and give control over to my Creator who knows what it is that I need. He is obviously trying to teach me something and has been for quite some time. I was fighting the depression and anxiety tooth and nail and trying to do everything in MY power to understand why this was happening and why it keeps happening in my life. I just wanted Him to make it go away. I was very angry & impatient with Him for not immediately taking it away and for letting this happen to me. Lately, though, as I’ve come to the end of myself and into his loving arms, it’s been getting better. One tiny step at a time. I’ve been struggling with these things for about a month now. Your devotional gives me hope and I will continue to re-read the scripture until I memorize it. His word gives us new life. God Bless you.
