Pray

"Save me, O God,
for the flood waters are up to my neck.
Deeper and deeper I sink into the mire;
I can't find a foothold to stand on.
I am in deep water, and the floods overwhelm me.
I am exhausted from crying for help;
my throat is parched and dry.
My eyes are swollen with weeping,
waiting for my God to help me."
-Psalm 69:1-3

I was just flipping through Psalm the other day and I came across this passage. I was moved to tears from this. I kept thinking about the people in Japan and how this is their cry. I pray that they don't lose hope. God will be their refuge. Please.. Please keep these people in your prayers.

  1. Yes.

    Gabby, I pray that you would always have a tender heart. I pray that your ears would always be attentive to your God. I smiled and was so proud of you when I read this post. You are a woman of God and that is what you were meant to be. Don't ever walk away from Him!

    Lots of love to you, dear.

  2. I agree that we need to pray for them! Most of the Japanese people are Buddhist and we need to pray for their salvation more than their circumstances. Maybe this is a judgment from God on them and to try to get them to turn to Him...I don't know, but I pray that they will find comfort in God alone and not buddha because buddha is dead and cannot help them.
