God will lift up your head - Jars of Clay

Hmm.. today's cg msg was really a word in season for me. It's so easy to walk along, and just hearing a fact about yourself - that strikes at your core because you know it's true - can make you lose focus. Yet there's always 2 choices to make, to accept that word or to throw it off to claim a new one.

When i said, "My foot is slipping," your love, O Lord, supported me. When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul. - Psalm 94:18-19

And just when you're thinking about how tired you feel, the choices there are, the ones you know you'll make, there's always the Holy Spirit who comes along beside you, reminding you that He is there. And His presence is like a sip of fresh water, a breath of fresh air to a tired, parched soul. But tired, parched souls are good for absorbing water, so drink! Drink from the river of living water! The Holy Spirit can lead you there, but you have to open your heart to drink from it.
