“Deep Water” Psalm 69:1-3, 13-17

Message by Pastor Walt Jones

Moments of frustration and aggravation come into all of our lives from time to time… times of deep water as well. It is in those times that it is so helpful and reassuring to know that God stands with us no matter what the situation before us. In “Deep Water” based on parts of Psalm 69, we have the opportunity this morning to carefully consider again just how much He cares and just what He’s willing to do for us. The message of God’s Word for us here in these verses is simple, but oh… so important: when we’re passing through the waters of deep sorrow, or adversity, or despair and there appears to be nowhere to turn or go… remember that Jesus loves you and will always be there. How great is His faithfulness to us as His children.

It doesn’t matter what the difficulty might be God is Sufficient! Accident, illness, job, relationship… whatever threatens to “overwhelm you,” God is sufficient. Do you hear that?

I’m His child. You’re His child. He cares for me. He cares for you. I’m secure in His sure salvation. We’re secure in HIs sure salvation.

Whatever the issues, the situations of life... the fact of the matter remains: OUR LOVING GOD COMES TO MEET US AT THE POINT OF, AT THE PLACE OF OUR NEED. ALWAYS!

God’s love for His children, knows no end, no boundary, no limitation. His mercy knows no equal. David is confident of that… and we can be so we well.

Here’s the message of God’s Word to us in a nutshell: When you’re passing through the waters of deep sorrow or frustration or despair… and you get no help from others, remember Jesus is always there.
