When there are.... no words

I am grateful that God can read my heart and understand where I am and what I am going through, even when I cannot.
There are times when I simply can't articulate what I'm feeling or what I need, because I really don't even know.  Circumstances in life can overwhelm me to the point that I feel numb and unable to accurately process my feelings.  Thankfully, God knows my heart better than I do....He created me and knows exactly what I need at all times!  How amazing is that?
The events of life in this broken world can really impact me at times.  Pain....fears....hurtful words....disappointments....evil....selfishness....oppression....and all sorts of trials can cause me to feel completely handicapped.
So when I feel unsettled, depressed, detached or just plain indifferent....all I need to do is trust that the Holy Spirit will help me in my weakness.  He will voice my plight before the very throne of God.  God will search my heart and extend to me the exact amount of His life giving grace to recharge my anesthetized spirit.  Thank you Lord.

"In the same way the Spirit helps us in our weakness.  We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.  And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God's people in accordance with the will of God." ~ Romans 8:26-27
