Psalm 13

1 How long, O LORD ? Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?

2 How long must I wrestle with my thoughts
and every day have sorrow in my heart?
How long will my enemy triumph over me?

3 Look on me and answer, O LORD my God.
Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death;

4 my enemy will say, "I have overcome him,"
and my foes will rejoice when I fall.

5 But I trust in your unfailing love;
my heart rejoices in your salvation.

6 I will sing to the LORD,
for he has been good to me.


I am the quintessence of this chapter. It starts by complaint after complaint- whine whine whine whine... But at the end of the day, I know God is looking out for me. He has my best interest at hand. "I trust in Your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in Your salvation." I whole-heartedly believe in that. No matter what comes my way, my God has, does, and will ALWAYS provide if I put my faith in Him and Him alone. Lately I've been stressing out about my post-undergrad career--whether I should try out for the real world and find a job or continue on with my education into grad school. The thing that has been worrying me the most though is.. I know my grades are less than desirable, my resume isn't all that impressive, but what I am proud of, of what I am certain is my love for God and my desire to serve Him in everything that I do. My future is decided, and I trust in that fully. It scares me to death, but when I remind myself of all the things that God has provided for me and my family in times when I thought we weren't going to make it through, His eternal promises give me immense hope and comfort.
