...that I may live
Open my eyes...
I am a stranger...
...do not hide
My soul is crushed...
Take away reproach and contempt from me...
Thy testimonies are my counselors.
This is the heart in the midst of affliction crying out. Looking for understanding, looking for help and comfort. A real man going through real trouble looking and longing for his God. Oh that I would sound like this in the midst of a storm... He only seems to be affected by the absence of God. God has seemed to pull away from him and he is desperate to get Him back... Searching hard after God no matter the circumstances... this is a man truly blessed (119:2,10)

Aman!
I just wanted to share my thoughts on John 1 that I had in my quiet time this morning. Starting in verse 19,we are introduced to John the Baptist. While John was baptizing,he was questioned by priests and Levites from the Jews. The first was "Are you Elijah?",they rembered what was said in Mal.4 about the return of Elijah.No he isnt."Are you the Prophet",because they remembered Deuteronomy 18:15 and he answered no. Then verse 23,we discovered he is the the "voice" that was predestined in Isaiah 40:3. Now my question, is why did the priests and the Levites remember the predestien of Elijah and the Prophet but not the one of the Voice in the Wilderness in Isaiah?
I would like to see yalls thoghtes on my question. By the way I meant Amen not aman on my first comment.
