when I'm stupid, make mistakes, or don't know when to let go and move on, he make allowances for it and covers me with his mercy and grace.
I never feel condemned by the LORD for making mistakes. Instead he reminds me that though I may stumble I will not fall, for he is more than able to help me stand. I surrender it to him. When I am weak I am strong because I lean on him and he is my strength.
I can remember being super upset with my Mum and he let me rant and rave about how demanding and bossy she was, etc, etc. And then he quietly whispered one thought to me...she needs to be loved more than me...and it stopped me in my tracks. I balled my eyes out as I realised my Mum was on her own - she had lost the love of her life, her best friend. I had just lost my Dad - my best friend was fast asleep in our bed :-)
He let me have my moment and then he calmed me down with just one statement.

I am right there with you----thank You Jesus for allowing us the opportunity to see how You work in all people, even in our anger, our impatience, our suffering, our hurts, betrayals, all of it.....that You whisper in our ears what is needed for that moment, whether we need to be convicted of some thought or action we have done, or we need comfort for our pain, a sense of Him being there in our loneliness and times of tragedy---yes those who believe----He shows up---
