I Hit the Wall Tonight

January 10, 2009 by Holiday Longing

wall I won’t tell you why. I mean, even an anonymous blog has a limit to how many gory details it’s prudent to share.

But I’ll say this much: I rarely, if ever, get to the point where I say “Jesus, I don’t know what to do. I don’t know what to do. Help me.”

Something tells me that’s a good prayer to pray. Duh.

Maybe He’s brought these circumstances into my life just so I’ll pray that prayer. Double duh.

My guess is He does know what to do. secret

I hope He lets me in on the secret soon.

Lord: Give me your guidance, your wisdom, your love, and your peace. Amen

Are you flummoxed but relatively patient and trusting, or are you panicky or despairing? If the latter two, Lord, help. I mean, Lord help either way, but, panic and despair require more immediate and drastic measures.

Thanks for the prayers. Still don’t know what to do, but feeling better about it…

I’m one of those strange few that don’t mind hearing (seeing) the gore.

Okay, okay… one prayer, coming up. You’ll be fine.

Some gore is just too painful to share. And too personal. And about other people who would die to be written about. Maybe after it’s resolved…

I’d think that if it’s a wall and not a door, that may be an answer in and of itself.

Hope everything is getting better for you. Whatever was/is your case asking Jesus for help has to be the best approach.

Sounds like we are in similar states of mind, for different reasons. Sorry… may He provide some wisdom and discernment.

I’ll be praying for you as well. Although we all know that you’re really on some top secret mission just like James Bond. You can’t fool us.

The sweetest and most honest prayers are those.

Mine have been, “Yeshua, thank you” (no matter what!) and “Lord, have mercy on me, a sinner.” Keep staying honest and don’t worry about what you think He expects you to pray. He already knows the truth anyway.

Thank you all for your prayers. Pray God breaks my heart and brings me to repentance and a deeper walk with Him. That’s the Holiday we all need, right?

Thanks for the book suggestion. I hit The Wall last week. The wall broke down and brought me straight to the lap of God! Where I cried like a baby in his care. Thank you for sharing your humanness! It’s a comfort!
