Just Breathe

"When my soul was embittered,
when I was pricked in heart,
I was brutish and ignorant;
I was like a beast toward you.
Nevertheless, I am continually with you;
you hold my right hand.
You guide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will receive me to glory.
Whom have I in heave but you?
And there is nothing on earth
that I desire besides you.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever...
...But for me it is good to be near God;
I have made the Lord God my refuge,
that I may tell of all your works."
- Psalm 73: 21-28

This morning was overwhelming with too much to list. My chest was heavy, thoughts racing, emotions high, tears flowing, energy hovering on E. Some days are just heavier and harder than others. When I really process through life, it's sometimes hard, painful really.
Today I have concentrated on breathing. haha, sounds easy enough, but when it hurts so much deep down in there, it hurts to breathe. Every now and then I take a deep breath and I can feel that heavy ache in my heart.
The first thing that came to mind was my flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
Welp, today it feels as if my flesh and my heart are failing me. I can't see the purpose, the light, the answers, the good, His glory.
But I do see Him here, holding me together, helping me to just breathe... I believe, help my unbelief with each breath?!
