Dear Jesus,
I will praise you through my trials. I know I feel like I have been battling for a long time for now but sometimes seeing new pictures of them two together brings me to tears. Then it brings me very bad nightmares. Even though I am sad, I thank you for these happenings. If you led me to it, you will lead me through it. There are two ways to go about this: 1.) I can sit down, cry, and maybe find a friend with benefit to comfort me but lose respect, 2.) Praise God through these circumstances, He has plan to make me stronger so my life may glorify him.
See, this is why my posts are so bipolar. but I am sure my only reader, Joe, will appreciate my realness. A young girl’s journey in finding God!
I choose solution two. I had a good day today at church God, but everything just crumbled me down again, (thanks to FB). Lord, I know this is not a coincidence. You want to remind me of your gospel, of my weakness. I know I can be content in all circumstances. I can forgive, love, laugh because of your power. I don’t have to seek for revenge. Jesus, I want to always rejoice in Your truth.
“I can do all this through him who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:13
Amen.
