Scattered Letters

“Trust in Him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before Him: God is a refuge for us.” (Psalm 62:8)

Sometimes when we pray, all we can say is, “God,” and we didn’t hear Him reply, “I know.”

Can you visualize tossing hands full of magnetized letters onto a magnetic board? The haphazard landing form no words, no message. When a heart is so burdened, broken, and confused, prayers to God may seem vague, scattered, and scrambled—if you can voice them at all. But you humbled yourself before God and poured out your heart because that’s what He wants you to do, trust Him. Amid the anguish, tears, and wordless prayer, how will He understand your request? Because He is God, your refuge—your place of safety; He knew your heart’s needs before you were aware of them.

Whether your pleadings before God make sense to you, rest in Him. The Holy Spirit takes every scattered letter and scrambled word—every word uttered—every unvoiced cry of your heart into God’s presence. Trust Him, child of God; your Father understands and is working on your behalf.
