I was blessed last year with a devotional book titled "Jesus Calling: Enjoying Peace in His Presence". This little book has richly touched my heart and helped me during this season of life. Today's entry was deeply convicting, yet it calms me each time that I read it. I hope that it blesses you as well:
"You need Me every moment. Your awareness of your constant need for Me is your greatest strength. Your neediness, properly handled, is a link to My Presence. However, there are pitfalls that you must be on guard against: self-pity, self-preoccupation, giving up. Your inadequacy presents you with a continual choice --- deep dependence on Me, or despair. The emptiness you feel within will be filled either with problems or with My Presence. Make Me central in your consciousness by praying continually: simple, short prayers flowing out of the present moment. Use My Name liberally, to remind you of My Presence. Keep on asking and you will receive, so that your gladness may be full and complete. I THESSALONIANS 5:17; JOHN 16:24 (AMP)"
