Welcome back to my blog, I am so happy you decided to click on this link. It’s been a month since my last blog was written. It was actually written on my birthday and it’s still available to read so please (check it out). Now, let’s get to the point! I can say this month and last month has been very challenging and to be honest if you know me very well, I like to hide my emotion when I’m going through a tough time. For the reason that, I would rather see someone else happy than to worry about my emotion. I would walk around with a mask on and on the inside, I would just feel horrible. As Christian we should not live a life like that, the bible specified in, 1 Peter 5:7 said” Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you”. God does not want you walking around this earth miserable, hurt and broken. Broken people can’t complete their purpose.
God really care for us and we are not walking this journey alone. I use to feel so alone like no one could understand me. It can really get hard sometimes. Can I be real for a moment, my dad recently got sick and is still sick and I was planning on moving to another state because I thought it was time for me to move on and start fresh. However, that wasn’t the will of God, so I stayed behind and it was getting really tough because I had no help to take care of my Dad it was like I was doing everything by myself. And yes it was getting a little too much for me to handle. I felt like I was alone, and I really dislike talking to people about my situation. But through it all, God was my strength He was getting me through each day. It’s this verse in Bible that stated in Psalm 73:26 ” My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever”. However, I remember telling someone I was moving but I didn’t really move, and they ask me what happen and I told them my situation with my dad being sick. And they said with your dad situation you’re doing the right thing (I was still mad) and that person said whatever you need just call me I will be there. And hearing them said that really encouraging me and it just did something to me, like God, I am not alone. `
I know God is with me, and sometime we just need a little reminder. No matter what your situation may look like, I want you to know God is here with you as well. It’s important as Christian that we should first come to God with our problem, not Facebook, Twitter, Instagram. I honestly like to write my problem down like a little journal to God. It’s important to ask God for direction on how can we approach and find someone to talk to about the situation that you’re going through. That’s why you have leadership at your church. It’s also important to ask God to give you a spirit of discernment for the reason that, some people like to spread gossip around the church instead of praying for you. I have this one person that I can talk to and I can just cry on her shoulder and she would just let me cry without asking any question. Prayer is also very important. Without prayer and reading the bible I don’t know how I made it this far in life. The devil will try to attack us daily with your friends, people at work even with your own family member and it can really do some damage if you let it. Also if you can’t pray by yourself ask someone to help you pray, the bible stated in Matthew 18:20 “For where two or three gathers in my name, there am I with them”When everything seems like it’s falling apart, I say turn to God first. God will never leave you alone when time are hard. God will comfort you even when no one else knows that your going through. He’s the best thing I ever choose to believe and accept into my life.
Stay Encouraged!
Love,
