Have you ever felt like you have been so overwhelmed with life that there cannot be anything else that could possibly go wrong? or in other words you couldn't handle anything else to go wrong! The encouragement i find during these troubled times is in Psalm 63, especially the verse that says "Your love is better than life!"
We can complain all we want until we are blue in the face about everything that overwhelms us and it still won't solve the problem. If anything it just drains us. It is during such difficult times that i cry out to God during the watches of the night, like the psalms speaks about and i cling on to God like my life was due to expire. In sharing with God what is overwhelming my heart i find comfort. I find love and understanding. I find the love that is better than life!
It is hard to find anyone that will understand the complexity of what goes on inside our mind. Sometimes it is difficult to even put into words what we are feeling. Sometimes we don't even feel the right to complain and this is when you need to understand that your feelings are real and need to be dealt with. Sometimes our problem consists of not having in our lives the person or the things we had anticipated to have at this point in our lives. It is at this point that we need to find the love that is better than life. God wants nothing more than to build a relationship with us, He doesn't care where you've been the sins that you've committed all He wants is to give you the hope and love that is better than anything else that exists in this world. The only thing we need to do is seek Him and pour all those emotions into words and then we will find peace and the understanding that we so desperately want and need.
