Jeremiah 26: 11-16, 24; Ps 69;Matthew 14:1-12

A cry from the heart

Talk about a cry from the heart! Along with David’s desperate pleas for help were his praises for God and the certainty of that help arriving. We too have times of feeling the waves washing over us and swamping us. Times of weariness through calling and searching for God. But how sure are we that he hears us and do we still think to praise him? Lord give us the faith David had, that even in our desperation we know our prayers are being answered.
