Wits’ End Corner

Read Psalms 106:1 through 109:31

Life can be like riding a ship rolling in the midst of a stormy sea: up one second reaching for the stars, the next second plummeting to the depths. The Psalmist wrote about those who “went out on the sea in ships.”

They reeled and staggered like drunkards; they were at their wits’ end. Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress (Psalm 107:27–28).

A. G. Ward wrote in the Pentecostal Evangel eighty-three years ago, “We have passed through many tests in the past twenty-four years, often we have been at ‘wits’ end corner’ but again and again we have found ourselves singing.”

Are you at the end of your rope? Cry out to the Lord. Your prayer life will be different. Your praise life will open up.

Your prayer should be like that of Jehoshaphat as he led God’s people when they were under attack: “We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon you” (2Chronicles 20:12).

Prayer Suggestion: Lord, I trust You to still the storms in my life.

Quicklook: Psalm 107:23–32

Been there wore the T-shirt. It is amazing how I can find it many places, it seems to move around.

That is one of the reasons that people say that AA is the last house on the block. When nothing else works, and you are willing to work for your recovery and work for the program, then that corner does not show up on your door stop quite so often. The difference is that you know when you find yourself, all you have to do is pray and apply the program to your life and clarity and the inner know is there, and the good orderly direction, will take you past or lead you back to your recovery road and where you need to be.

Just realized that I wrote this after looking at the title and never read the text!
