The time comes to me when I am out of word, I can't tell what I am thinking and feeling sufficiently, my mind is burdened with the cares and is exhausted. And for awhile, there is a great temptation of being self-pity and irritable. The force is so great that it oppressed me greatly. Lord, have mercy!
But Lord, then the remembrance of Thy kindness and faithfulness to me Thou put in my heart. And once again Thou remind me that I am Thine own, Thou hast shown Thy love so greatly. How could I forget them. Thou art merciful Lord! Let Thy will governs all and let me to greet all things with peace of soul. Behold my miserable soul, burdened by sins; Lord have mercy on me, heal me O Lord by Thy mercy. And Glory to Thee O Lord, because the words that Thou put on Thy Holy servant comfort my soul so greatly:
"Yahweh, may my cry approach your presence;
let your word endow me with perception!
May my entreaty reach your presence;
rescue me as you have promised.
May my lips proclaim your praise
since you teach me your statutes.
May my tongue recite your promise,
since all your commandments are righteous.
May your hand be there to help me,
since I have chosen your percepts.
I long for you, Yahweh my saviour,
your Law is my delight.
Long may my soul live to praise you,
long be your rulings my help!
I am wandering like a lost sheep:
come and look for your servant.
No, I have never forgotten your commandments" (Psalm 118:169-176 JB)
Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner!

Yudhie my brother, Christ is with you, showing you all the good things that are in His heavenly Jerusalem, and your writing, sometimes out of the anguish of your heart, is like "streams of living water" that the soul thirsts for. Thank you for sharing this beautiful prayer and testimony.
