"Trust in Him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before Him: God is a refuge for us. Selah."
Psalms 62:8
Have you ever had something you wanted to talk to someone about but thought it might be too heavy for them to handle? That perhaps they would get a glimpse of the deepest, darkest parts of you and run for cover? Or maybe think to yourself that they would never be able to look at you the same way again?
We all have sin; it's just the way it is. We all struggle with different temptations and ungodly desires, but that does not scare God away. He knows about the deep, dark places of our hearts and still loves us unconditionally! Nothing can ever separate you from His unwavering love.
This scripture tells us to "pour out our hearts before him." It does not say "let a little but trickle out." It tells us to POUR. We can lay it all down before Him today, every thought we struggle with, the bitterness we battle daily to let go of, and the pain from the past that haunts us every day.
When you pour it out and get it out in the open before Him, He will be a refuge for you; a shelter. He will cover you with His feathers and will become a safe place for even the darkest of times.
