Analyzed Verses by a Simple Brain, Pt. 1

So I decided to take the verses I found as part of the song in my previous post and look a little further into them. As usual, God has an amazing sense of humor. The first verse totally kicked me in the butt when put into context.

In the beginning of this Psalm, David is talking about how bad he felt when he was hiding his sin from God, and how relieved he was when he finally confessed it. Well, even though when the Lord said this, I think He was referring to just doing what He says and not be stubborn when it comes to confessing our sins, I kinda took a different perspective on it. Although, if I really think about it, what I'm about to say could be along the same lines, if doubt and frustration and confusion and depression are, in fact, sins.

"The LORD says, 'I will make you wise and show you where to go. I will guide you and watch over you. * So don't be like a horse or donkey, that doesn't understand. They must be led with bits and reins, or they wil not come near you.'" ~ Psalm 32:8-9

So my thoughts? What is God telling me personally through this? SUCK. IT. UP! If God speaks like that...which, with me and my hard head, He probably does. The way I take this verse, God has shown me where to go (Florida). He is guiding me and watching over me, even now. If this verse didn't prove it already, the numerous verses that state God promises to never leave us, and that He is always with us wherever we go, should do the trick. So why am I being a stubborn @$$ and trying to make things work the way I want them to (New Hampshire), when I don't have a stinkin' clue as to what God is thinking or wanting to do in me down here? Am I, with my doubt and depression, being just like a horse or a donkey, that has to be bridled and whipped and led around by restraints? God is telling me I don't have to be like this. All I need to do is trust in what I already know: that He will show me where to go, that He is guiding me and watching over me. And I can't ask for anything better than that.

I'm noticing a lot of people seem to be dealing with these issues right now. God is moving, I believe. I know, for myself, that I just need to get over myself and trust. Simply trust. Am I the only one?
