Overwhelmed!

“From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” (Psalm 61:2)

David knew what it was like to be overwhelmed and I'm sure that if you are reading this today you do too. Now, to be overwhelmed means to be buried beneath a huge mass or defeated completely. There are days where we feel the defeat of this life and then there are days that we have victory over anything that comes our way. The fact that we need to understand today is that the God on the mountain is still the God in the valley, when things go wrong He can always make them right. The God in the good times, is still the God of the bad times, and the God of the day is still God in the night.
All we need to learn to do is run! That's right run to the right source. When you are feeling overwhelmed just go to the rock. The rock is a foundation that you can stand and build upon and a place of shelter from anything that could come at you. David knew what it was like when Saul would chase after him to kill him and all the emotions that would come along with it. But in those moments of uncertainty, when he was at his breaking point, David would go to the rock that He knew was able. David wanted us to understand the same God that was a rock for him would be the same rock for us to rest upon. Are you overwhelmed? Just rest upon the rock!
