SELF-PITY IS A SLIMY, BOTTOMLESS PIT. - PSALM 40 : 2 – 3 , PSALM 42 : 5, PSALM 147 : 11

"SELF-PITY IS A SLIMY, BOTTOMLESS PIT. Once you fall in, you tend to go deeper and deeper into the mire. As you slide down those slippery walls, you are well on your way to depression, and the darkness is profound. Your only hope is to look up and see the Light of GOD'S Presence shining down on you. Though the Light looks dim from your perspective, deep in the pit, those rays of hope can reach you at any depth. While you focus on GOD in trust, you rise ever so slowly out of the abyss of despair. Finally, you can reach up and grasp GOD'S hand. The LORD will pull you out into the Light again. The LORD will gently cleanse you, washing off the clinging mire. HE will cover you with HIS righteousness and walk with you down the path of Life."

He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD. PSALM 40 : 2 – 3

Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him For the help of His countenance. PSALM 42 : 5 (NKJV)

The LORD delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love. PSALM 147 : 11

Prayer: God, when I feel stuck in self-pity or despair, help me to look up toward Your Light. Reach into my darkness, lift me with Your mercy, and remind me I’m never too far gone for Your grace. Cover me in Your love, and lead me back into Life with You. Amen.
