Overwhelmed
“But I will show you whom you should fear: fear him [God] who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him”
(Luke 12:58; NIV).
“I am nothing” (Job 40:4; NLT).
Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy! I look to you for protection (Psalm 57:1; NLT).
Hide me in the shadow of your wings (Psalm 17:8; NLT).
And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish (Matthew 8:25; KJV).
Father,
I’m afraid!
You are too great
For me.
Too strong
And overwhelming.
Too powerful
And awesome.
I am nothing before you,
My Lord and my God.
Have mercy on me –
Hide me in the shadow
Of your wings.
Save me,
Or I perish!
