Jeremiah 17 one way or the other

Jeremiah 17

Thus says the Lord : “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the Lord. He is like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see any good come. He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land. (Jeremiah 17:5, 6 ESV)

Lord I know I depend on my own strength too much. Even in ministry I struggle with this. But I have been humbled. I am low and weak and at the point of despair, would you help me not give up but instead trust you. If you have really called me would you speak to me and fill me with you truth and vision.

I don't want to try to go it alone anymore. I don't know how to trust though. I feel lost. I feel I am in the desert wilderness, lost and without direction or hope. I don't know how to do anything anymore. I don't know where to look or to go anymore. 

God pick me up and set me on your path.
Amen
