Narrative: Welcome to Insights on Healing Podcast. Our Episode title is, Give God your worries even when you are at your worse. You will learn how God is your refuge.

I am Joan M. Blake, an author, and I am your host. Insights on Healing Podcast includes the reading of scripture, praying, reading from one of my books, or interviewing individuals who found purpose in their lives through the healing power of God.

The purpose of this podcast is to provide content which brings emotional healing and restoration to mothers who have had a difficult past and are currently experiencing difficulties. A focal point of this podcast is reflecting on scripture verses and praying for my audience. I pray as you listen to this episode, that God would bless you with inner strength, purpose, and provide you with the hope that you have been longing for.

I am reading Psalm 61 verses 1-4 from the NIV version of the BIBle

Hear my cry, O God;
    listen to my prayer.

² From the ends of the earth I call to you,
    I call as my heart grows faint;
    lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
³ For you have been my refuge,
    a strong tower against the foe.

⁴ I long to dwell in your tent forever
    and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.^[b]
5 For you, God, have heard my vows;
    you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

Reflection: We notice that this is a Psalm of David who called upon God numerous times when he was in trouble. He is asking God to hear his cry and tells God he has called him from afar, explaining the great need that he has, and reminding God that he has been his refuge and strong tower against his enemies and how he yearns to be in God’s tent and be in the shelter of God’s wings. He continues to let God know that God has heard his vows and God has given him the heritage because he fears God.

Let us pray: Father like David, we bow before you and reverenced your name, that is higher than every other name in heaven and earth. We call upon you and bring our life issues before you and ask for you to help us Lord, God. We ask for healing not only for our children but for those around the world who are ill and suffering from lack of food and care. We ask for a breakthrough Lord, for you are able to hear and answer our cries. Thank you for listening and answering our prayers in the name of Jesus, Amen.
