There is no pit so deep that He is not deeper still.
~~Corrie Ten Boom
This morning’s prayer and meditation for Sally’s healing comes from Take Heart, Oh God: Riches from the Greatest Christian Women Writers of All Time.
In the pit, we are enveloped by darkness. It’s cold. Dank. And very lonely. Our cries go unheard and eventually all we can do is whimper into the darkness, hoping against hope that someone will hear, someone will call down to us from above, someone will find a way to rescue us. But as our tears fall to the ground, we may be here for a long time.
Where is God?
The truth is, dear sister, he is here. In the pit. He knows the trial that has sent you into this pit of darkness. Abandonment, uselessness, grief, fear, depression. He desires to help you out of the pit. To raise you back to the sunshine and resh air. To refresh you to serve again.
Corrie ten Boom lived it. “There is no pit so deep that He is not deeper still.” Grab onto God and don’t let go.
Prayer for Meditation
This pit is dark, Lord, but I am holding on to you.
Scripture for Meditation – Psalm 40:2
He lifted me out of the pit of despair,
out of the mud and the mire.
He set my feet on solid ground
and steadied me as I walked along.
