Bible Note: Thank you Tim for your support and words of comfort. I believe that these things I am dealing with now are all for a reason. To make me strong and to become a blessing to someone else. I must endure. Satan is trying to steal my joy. John 15:1-4 talks about Jesus as the True Vine and His father as the vinedresser. I want to be equipped to bear good fruits.I can only do this through the Son. Through prayer and supplication I know I will endure. It just seems so hard now to keep what I know is right and real. VS 7 says: If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. I am trying and I believe-I really do-Sometimes it feels that He has left me, then He will do something to let me know He is still there. He will allow something to happen to show me He is with me. I don't need him to leave me for 1 second. I might do the wrong thing. Sometimes I get scared that I am going to fail. Pray that I become that soldier God will have me be. I want to stand all my tests. I try to keep smiling. My heart wants to heal. The hole is so big-I know God knows my heart and what I need. I just need strenth to stand. Please continue to pray for me and my family. Your Sister in Christ, ck1 |
