Fed Up

so look up

Scripture Reading: Psalm 123

“Fed up” would be a good description of the Psalmist’s feelings. “We have had more than enough of contempt. Our soul has had more than enough of the scorn of those who are at ease, of the contempt of the proud.”

Maybe you can relate. You too might feel as though “you have had it up to here.”

What do you do when you are fed up? Follow the example of the Psalmist.

Lift up your eyes to your God, remembering that He is enthroned in the heavens. Lift up your eyes to Him in humble submission to His divine will. Lift up your eyes to Him in patient faith. Lift up your eyes to the Lord and wait…Wait for Him to have mercy.

It is fine to acknowledge that you have had enough. It is what you do when you are fed up that is the real test. When you get fed up, look up.
