When You Feel Helpless
Helplessness is a bit like quick sand. The more you try, the deeper you sink. Helplessness is also like baptism. You’ve got to surrender to it to come out the other side.
I Believe, Lord Help My Unbelief
Perhaps it is in the meeting place of our dual emotions where a sacred place with God is formed. A place of honesty and intimacy.
God Holds Us In His Hands
There is a peace and a comfort when we realize God has us in His hands.
Lord, Don't Leave Me

The Blessing Of Imagery
God has given us such a gift in the words of the Bible. He’s given us language to explain and express the good and difficult states of our hearts. For those of you that are in a difficult spiritual state, remember the blessing of imagery. May we read our Bibles all the more! Consider using these words/images (and others!) to pray to God about what is going on in your life. Know that God, in His deep love for you, has given other people words to say, pictures to paint, and songs to sing that can be used to give you words and names for your difficulty.
