Scripture: Attend to my cry, for I am brought very low! Deliver me from my persecutors, for they are too strong for me! Bring me out of prison, that I may give thanks to your name! The righteous will surround me, for you will deal bountifully with me. (Psalm 142:6-7 ESV)

Observation: my persecutor is myself, my prison is my own thoughts...this is how I feel tonight.

Application: Christ alone has the power to set me free, to deliver me, to surround me with the righteous.  Lord give me steadfastness and stregnth to see Your mighty work...I need You!

Prayer: Daddy, there is so much I am weeping and struggling with.  I need Your mighty hand, I need You to fight for joy for me, for I am growing weak with every breath, gasping for air...deliver me!
