Oh, Magoo

You've done it again!

Tonight as I was packing to go home in a few days, I started thinking about my day. I have a cold and I got into a huge fight with my best friend and didn't make the grades I wanted to on my last finals. I was talking to a friend about where I live and describing why I love it so much and this huge wave of homesickness came over me. I lost it and the tears started to flow.
All this confusion and chaos is swirling around me as I've tried to not get swept away in the swift winds. I closed my eyes and realized where I was- in the middle, the eye of the storm. God was there, where He's always been, graciously holding out His arms, ready to envelop me with His love.

The storm still rages on, trying to pull me every which way, but God will always be holding out His arms to me when I need them.

"I feel your pain, Child. I know your confusion and anxiety. I'm here for you. I've always been here for you. Come to Me, I want to relieve your burden, I want to dry your tears. You are My child and nothing will change that. Always come to Me."

Ps. 69:1 Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul.
2 I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
3 I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.
