Save Us

Over the passed few days I have been crying out to God.
"Please! Save me! Save my husband! Save my marriage! Save us! Please!"
I feel like I am just shouting at the top of my lungs, pleading and begging. Help me! Save me!

I feel like me, my husband and our marriage needs to be saved from the Fowler's trap. Picked up and placed and on high rock. I thought this morning that we need to be pulled from the miry clay and I looked that scripture up and it comes from Psalms:

Psalm 40
1 I was patient while I waited for the Lord.
He turned to me and heard my cry for help.
2 I was sliding down into the pit of death, and he pulled me out.
He brought me up out of the mud and dirt.
He set my feet on a rock.
He gave me a firm place to stand on.
3 He gave me a new song to sing.
It is a hymn of praise to our God.
Many people will see what he has done and will worship him.
They will put their trust in the Lord.
4 Blessed is the man
who trusts in the Lord.
He doesn't look to proud people for help.
He doesn't turn away to worship statues of gods.
5 Lord my God,
no one can compare with you.
You have done many miracles.
And you plan to do many more for us.
There are too many of them
for me to talk about.
6 You didn't want sacrifices and offerings.
You weren't pleased with burnt offerings and sin offerings.
You gave me ears to hear you and obey you.
7 Then I said, "Here I am.
It is written about me in the scroll.
8 My God, I have come to do what you want.
Your law is in my heart."
9 I have told the whole community of those who worship you
that what you do is right.
Lord, you know
that I haven't kept quiet.
10 I haven't kept to myself that what you did for me was right.
I have spoken about how faithful you were when you saved me.
I haven't hidden your love and truth
from the whole community.
11 Lord, don't hold back your mercy from me.
May your love and truth always keep me safe.
12 There are more troubles all around me than I can count.
My sins have caught up with me, and I can't see any longer.
My sins are more than the hairs of my head.
I have lost all hope.
13 Lord, please save me.
Lord, come quickly to help me.
14 Let all those who are trying to kill me be put to shame.
Let them not be honored.
Let all those who want to destroy me
be turned back in shame.
15 Some people make fun of me.
Let them be shocked when their plans fail.
16 But let all those who look to you
be joyful and glad because of what you have done.
Let those who love you because you save them always say,
"May the Lord be honored!"
17 But I am poor and needy.
May the Lord be concerned about me.
You are the One who helps me and saves me.
My God, please don't wait any longer.

The scripture that talks about being saved from the Fowler's snare is also in Psalms.

Psalm 124
1 Here is what Israel should say.
Suppose the Lord had not been on our side.
2 Suppose the Lord had not been on our side
when our enemies attacked us.
3 Suppose he had not been on our side
when their anger blazed out against us.
Then they would have swallowed us alive.
4 They would have been like a flood that drowned us.
hey would have swept over us like a rushing river.
5 They would have washed us away
like a swollen stream.
6 Give praise to the Lord.
He has not let our enemies chew us up.
7 We have escaped like a bird
from a hunter's trap.
The trap has been broken,
and we have escaped.
8 Our help comes from the Lord.
He is the Maker of heaven and earth.

He can save us. He can save my marriage and I trust that he will. I am continually crying out to God for help during this time. I have had a resurge of confidence and strength to stand for my husband over the past few days. I have to stand for him. He needs me even if he doesn't realize it. We are one and I am the strongest ally he has. I have to fight for him. I can't let him down.
