my cry for the last week ps 86

(in the last verse, I've been asking God for a sign of His goodness....he gave me that yesterday)
God's love for us unbelieveable! it's so pure and so rich......i'm overwhelmed at how true it really is......

Psalm 86

Hear me, LORD, and answer me,
for I am poor and needy.

2 Guard my life, for I am faithful to you;
save your servant who trusts in you.
You are my God; 3 have mercy on me, Lord,
for I call to you all day long.

4 Bring joy to your servant, Lord,
for I put my trust in you.

5 You, Lord, are forgiving and good,
abounding in love to all who call to you.

6 Hear my prayer, LORD;
listen to my cry for mercy.

7 When I am in distress, I call to you,
because you answer me.

8 Among the gods there is none like you, Lord;
no deeds can compare with yours.

9 All the nations you have made
will come and worship before you, Lord;
they will bring glory to your name.

10 For you are great and do marvelous deeds;
you alone are God.

11 Teach me your way, LORD,
that I may rely on your faithfulness;
give me an undivided heart,
that I may fear your name.

12 I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart;
I will glorify your name forever.

13 For great is your love toward me;
you have delivered me from the depths,
from the realm of the dead.

14 Arrogant foes are attacking me, O God;
a band of ruthless people seeks my life—
they have no regard for you.

15 But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God,
slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.

16 Turn to me and have mercy on me;
show your strength in behalf of your servant
and save the son of a woman
who served you before me.

17 Give me a sign of your goodness,
that my enemies may see it and be put to shame,
for you, LORD, have helped me and comforted me.

After a baby nearly 2 wks later I'm able to catch up on your blog. WOW!! a lot has happened with you! Personal struggles yet victorious for you. You come out much stronger walking closer with Jesus! You imitate Him. More so in your life then you probably realize. Isn't those valleys what we need? It's like saying Lord don't move that mountain just give me strength to climb! Be assured that prayers are said for you
