HEAR, O Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and needy. Guard my life, for I am devoted to you. You are my God, save your servant who trusts in you. Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I call to you all day long. Bring joy to your servant, for to you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. You are forgiving and good, O Lord, abounding in love to call who call to you. Hear my prayer, O Lord; listen to my cry for mercy.
Psalm 86:1-6

Read those lines again, slower. Soak in the cry that David brings to the Lord. 

These verses encompass all the my prayers have been lately. God is so good and so awesome! But right now, this is how I have been praying. I feel silly really, because I have a blessed life. I am abundantly blessed. I don't understand it at all. The things that God keeps telling me through others is positive. Man, I just don't feel like it all though.

My security does not lie in what others tell me nor do those things give me strength to carry on. My King has told me the truths that I am living in. I'm human; I forget. 

Last week, I was talking to God in church and I was just expressing my heart to Him. I was repenting for sin and asking for forgiveness. And you know what God said? He goes, "Eh, you're human. It's okay. You have repented. I forgive you." The God of the universe said that to me. 

We are given a chance to be in relationship with God. Don't take it for granted. 

If Psalm 86 is your cry to God right now, I just want to encourage you that His grace is sufficient. Rest in that. 

But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.
2 Corinthians 12:9
