Hello, everyone. Whilst contemplative prayer can be very peaceful,
even ecstatic, it can also be very alarming at times. I've never heard
this discussed anywhere, but here is my exploration of such an
experience.
Overwhelmed
For the Lord Most High is awesome, the great King over all the earth (Psalm 47:2).
It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God (Hebrews 10:31).
Father,
You overwhelm me
With your power.
I am afraid.
Silenced.
Awestruck.
I want to run away,
But cannot move,
And there is nowhere to hide.
I am nothing.
You are all.
Lord, save me!
Yet despite my fear,
I love you so much,
And know that you love me.
Therefore,
I dare to worship you.
