Yesterday was my birthday. I normally like to post a new post on Monday, but felt compelled to wait. We all have struggles! Life has a way of throwing us into curves, roadblocks, even having to hurdle the “debris” that is left over. It is one thing for sure and one that I take great comfort in, I AM NOT ALONE IN THIS LIFE. God promises are real. They are true and HE FIGHTS FOR US!!!!
This very moment, as I write, I am so struggling.
I must be honest at the emotions that my heart is experiencing. I am sadden. I am hurt. I am angry.
How does one let go. How does one empty their heart of hurtful words and actions. We hang on to them reliving over and over in our minds. Yes, we are human and our Heavenly Father knows our frame. HE KNOWS our weaknesses!
It is okay to ask why? Jesus did as he was dying on the cross and cried out, “My God, why have you forsaken me?”
Why Lord, why was that question asked? It was so overwhelmingly hurtful that I did not guard everything as I had determined. My emotions were so raw. Then pleading, please do not repeat, I will take care of it in my time, in God’s way. A promise given not only once, but three times to allow me to handle. That promise broken! With that promise broken, it has created a monster, devouring, destroying and it grieves my heart.
There are those problems that seem so unsolvable. Too many faucets, too many people involved that are unwilling to forgive. So with that, this vicious monster continues to ROB!
Let go and let God, the situation is bathed in my tears, my prayers, the yearnings of my heart. Let go and let God resounding in my mind. I cannot undo. I cannot fix, but I KNOW the one who can, ALMIGHTY GOD. I KNOW that HE STILL WORKS MIRACLES. In that I take great comfort, resting IN HIM!
Do you have situations that are overwhelming? I truly can empathize. WE CAN come unto him and HE will give us rest. Matthew 11:28, BUT WE MUST COME UNTO HIM, GOD ALMIGHTY, WHO LOVES WITH AN EVERLASTING LOVE! HE LONGS FOR US TO FALL INTO HIS ARMS. And yes, one day, HE WILL WIPE AWAY ALL THE TEARS.
