Scripture:
“In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my soul.”
— Psalm 94:19 (NKJV)
Points:
- God is not overwhelmed by the number of our anxious thoughts.
- His comfort meets us in the middle of mental chaos.
- Delight can return even when we feel buried in fear.
- God’s comfort is not shallow — it reaches the soul.
- There is joy hidden in the healing He gives.
Poem: Comfort in the Crowd
The thoughts don’t march in single line.
They rush like waves without a shore.
They tangle dreams and stir up dust.
They whisper lies too fast to name.
They shout what cannot be controlled.
But you do not fear their noisy steps.
You do not flee when numbers rise.
You meet the flood with stronger streams.
You send your comfort like a song.
It slips between the jagged cries.
Your comfort is not just soft words.
It is a presence that commands.
It moves through panic’s shadow halls.
It anchors joy in broken ground.
It lights the corners fear had claimed.
Delight returns in quiet steps.
Not loud, but certain in its weight.
It builds a table in the noise.
It pours out peace I didn’t earn.
It teaches me to breathe again.
Today I bring the crowded thoughts.
You do not count them with disdain.
You comfort each and call me close.
You plant delight where fear once grew.
You are the joy that holds my soul.
Prayer:
Father, there are so many anxious thoughts inside me. But You are greater than them all. Let Your comfort delight my soul again. Bring joy where fear once ruled. Amen.
