Psalm 42

1 As the deer pants for streams of water,
so my soul pants for you, O God.

2 My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
When can I go and meet with God?

3 My tears have been my food
day and night,
while men say to me all day long,
"Where is your God?"

4 These things I remember
as I pour out my soul:
how I used to go with the multitude,
leading the procession to the house of God,
with shouts of joy and thanksgiving
among the festive throng.

5 Why are you downcast, O my soul?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and 6 my God.
My [c] soul is downcast within me;
therefore I will remember you
from the land of the Jordan,
the heights of Hermon—from Mount Mizar.

7 Deep calls to deep
in the roar of your waterfalls;
all your waves and breakers
have swept over me.

8 By day the LORD directs his love,
at night his song is with me—
a prayer to the God of my life.

9 I say to God my Rock,
"Why have you forgotten me?
Why must I go about mourning,
oppressed by the enemy?"

10 My bones suffer mortal agony
as my foes taunt me,
saying to me all day long,
"Where is your God?"

11 Why are you downcast, O my soul?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God.

Trusting

I am pretty sure that no one reads this blog but none the less I write here. If you don't know a thing about me I am a Christian and face the same issues anyone does. Anyway, about 8 months back I made a decision to spend a lot of money to make a feature film. A lot of money that was all on credit.

Not sure if that was a good idea or not but what I do know is that 1) it is taking a lot longer to finish this project than I was hoping and 2) that the payments I have to make each month are so overwhelming it makes me wonder how I'm going to continue. I have a job interview for auto sales today that I will probably go to just so I can start making money. I am drastically behind in my bills and am hoping that I will be able to cover what I owe, even as early as tomorrow...or today.

This is teaching me that I need to put a whole lot of trust in God, cause I am not doing very well finacially at all.

Let's hope I can make some money. Oh how nice it would be to get about $5000 dropped in my lap - that might catch me up.

Trust God, Trust God.
