Mark 6:17, 2 Samuel 24:14, Psalm 32:6-11

Mark 6:17
Jesus Himself was astounded at their unbelief.

2 Samuel 24:14
“I am greatly troubled. Let me fall into the hands of Yahweh whose mercy is abundant; but let me not fall into human hands.”

Psalm 32:1-11
6 So let the faithful ones pray
to you in time of distress;
the overflowing waters will not reach them.
7 You are my refuge;
you protect me from distress
and surround me with songs of deliverance.
8 I will teach you,
I will show you the way to follow.
I will watch over you and give you counsel.
9 Do not be like the horse or the mule –
senseless and led by bit and bridle.
10 Many woes befall the wicked,
but the Lord’s mercy enfolds those who trust in him.
11 Rejoice in the Lord, and be glad,
you who are upright;
sing and shout for joy,
you who are clean of heart.

My Beloved are You astounded at my unbelief. I have known You all my life. I am aware of all that You have done for me. I have experienced Your power and I know that You are a God of love, mercy and compassion and that I can trust You completely. Yet, in the last few days I am lamenting as one who has no hope, like one who does not know You. Forgive me my Lord, I am a weak and sinful creature and in my shame I would say, 'Lord, depart from me for I am a sinner". But if You did depart from me what would become of me? I need You as I need air to breathe. Stay with me my Lord for without You I may as well be dead. Stay with me my God. Thank You.
