I'm worried. It feels like the pit of my stomach is being clenched. My mind is reeling. Thoughts are spinning.

But I heard this verse.

It popped into my head in the midst of my chaotic worrying.

Psalm 18.

So it's more like the entire chapter is exactly what I've been needing to hear.

Especially this part:

"You cleared the ground under me so my footing was firm."

To me I've come up with a connotation; connotation because I'm not definite as to what the Psalmist was referring...

That though everything feels like chaos, and the ground beneath me feels as though it has been swept away... It is all to be used to bring me closer to God.

Might I trust and keep faith enough to walk upon the treacherous waves, and not drown beneath them.

Someone once said that you have to keep your eyes on Jesus in order to walk on water; not to concentrate so hard on troubles, but have faith that God's got everything under control.


I'm just learning how difficult it really is.

Or is it.... How difficult I am making it out to be.
