God is Speaking...

The other night when I was doing my devotional, I was thinking. I had just been really down that week, I was reviewing in my mind all of the stuff that'd been going on over the week, and it just made me even more depressed. Then, in my devotional it had this verse. It was Psalms 43:5 and it said, "Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God." After I read that I was like, WOW!! It was as if God was talking straight to me and asking me if I was okay, and what was wrong. So later that week problems continued to persist. Once again in my devotional one of the verses spoke to me. 2 Samuel 6:21-22 said, "...I will celebrate before the Lord. I will become even more undignified than this, and I will be humiliated in my own eyes..." I was then thinking, God is just telling me to go crazy! He wants me to be happy and rejoice in him and not care what other people say! The same thing happened with 2 Corinthians 12:9 when I was feeling like I couldn't do any thing right. It says, "...Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me." This just made me feel great to think that I can rejoice that I'm not perfect! Wow! I can rejoice even in my imperfections! That makes me so happy, and glorifies God even more to admit that he is perfect and all powerful! Just thought I'd share some of my week with you!
