Unfailing Love

When I said, “My foot is slipping, ” your unfailing love, Lord, supported me. When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.
Psalm 94:18-19
4832 Pandering:  Ever been walking along feeling confident, secure, relaxed .... just looking around .... and your foot slips or you trip or someone's brakes squeal behind you???  Ohhh, the surge of anxiety, the insecurity of the moment, the danger .... what is going to happen now???

Those moments, those experiences in life whether by our own actions or actions of others unsettle us to our very core, our inner most being.  The emotions spike, the physical sensation of adrenaline rush, the logic in our mind immediately start searching for answers of "what is happening", "what is next" .... it is called the "fear of the unknown" (aka Anxiety).  I have had plenty of moments (hours, days, months) in my life that I either caused on my own or that were caused by other events than I care to recall.

But the Truth is I can still recall them very easily (especially the ones where I should have known better or put myself/others at risk).  There was a time I was driving in heavy rain with our family on an interstate highway, passing a semi in the passing lane when the semi went through a deep puddle which sent a heavy back splash across our car.  It was heavy enough it caused us to hydroplane and I lost control of the car.  We spun 3 times out in front of the semi and off the side of the highway.  

The surge of adrenaline, the fear, the anxiety are as clear now as they were in those moments .... I knew I should not have been passing in that moment but I did anyway .... I would never intentionally put my family at risk but I did ... as we spun I cried out loudly "Lord Save Us" !!!

I recall these moments and I try to learn from them but forgiving myself or someone else is very hard .... but the real memory is who I turned to in the midst of slipping/crisis.

4832 Questions: 
What are you moments when you "cried out"??  
Where did you turn??
How are you able to turn them over to God??
Or have you turned them over to God??

Please share your thoughts below, we all learn from each other about how "Gods Love is Unfailing" ...
