When I am in Distress

When I am afraid, Lord God you are there.  When I am sitting on the edge, Oh Lord, you pull me back.  When I am in distress you remind me that you are my Father, my God in whom I trust.  I am wholly yours oh Lord.  I turn myself over to you.  I can't make the worry go away.  I can't chase the fear, but when I read your word I'm reminded that you alone are God.  I hear you saying that yes, there are "things that are impossible with man, but ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD".  In my sleep I hear you saying, "fear not, for behold I am with you, even to the ends of the earth."  I begin to be able to rest in you.  Your comfort is unending.  Gently flowing through my mind are your words, Trust me child.  'Trust in me with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding of things.  In all your ways acknowledge me, and I will direct your path'.  I begin to know the peace that passes all understanding.  I can take a deep breath and open my eyes.  Eyes which have been so tightly shut.  No longer as afraid.  how long will I be tormented my God by those who seek to destroy me? What have I done that would warrant such attacks?  I have no more strength within me.  I feel as though I'm just going to fall down.  "No weapon formed against you shall prosper" your word comes back to me as a dream.  Isaiah 54:17 "and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn.  This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord and their righteousness is from me, says the Lord".  Your word comes to comfort me even in my sleep.  It rises up from a well so deep inside me and just when I feel defeat crushing me beneath the rocks, your word rises up and carries me on the wings of eagles.  Thank you God.  I don't know how or when, but I feel that I will make it out of this trouble because You are on my side.
Psalm 56:10-13 then comes to me and says "Then my enemies will turn back in the day that I call.  This i know, that God is for me. In God whose word I praise, in God I have put my trust, I shall not be afraid.  What can man do to me? Your vows are binding upon me Oh God.  I will give thanks to you.  for You have delivered my soul from death.  Indeed my feet from stumbling, so that I may walk before God in the light of the living."
Thank you for your word Oh God.  It refreshes me.  It comforts me.  It saves me.  I may stumble, but I will not fall for you are with me.  I love your gentle word.  Thank you for helping me stand.  In Jesus name I pray.  Amen.
