April May Gems - Jul 15 2025 ep54 - Going for a Crying Out Loud Walk. Ok. Who Cares?

Have you ever gone for a walk that turned into a 'yelling at the sky, nobody cares, crying out loud’ walk? I have. Very recently! My cry walk included getting completely lost and fearing I might fall into a sinkhole and no one would ever find me. It also included judging a handful of human beings, (at their worst) who showed me they did not care, as well as being awe-filled by the One who, on the contrary, showed me (at His best) that He truly does! This cry walk of mine ended up being like Psalm 23 - as a real life experience. The guidance, the provision and the rest, green pasture, quiet water, even a valley with all of its shadows and finally, the safe (and warm) dwelling that I thankfully, ended up at. Be encouraged. This same promise keeper can guide you to rest, if you choose to be led and He can open your eyes in wonder, so you can know He is there, if you choose to see. He can also lead you out of life’s slippery, swampy dark valleys and into the warmth of safety. May you know this, whether you’ve resorted to yelling out and swearing at the sky or weirdly finding some way to act out your prayer, He sees. He cares. He hears you.
