Authentic Stories Sharing His Authentic Love
When in a challenging marriage crisis, a worrisome bout of teenage collision, or our own internal struggle of whatever it may be we pray but we never listen. We cry out, we weep, but we forget to be silent and to hear His love pour into us.
The barrier I struggled to face was not about the abuse, the abuser, or anything really related to those many years of torture. The barrier was one I erected, one I had to be willing to confront and to tear down- one block at a time- it was- “Jesus, why did you leave me?”
So why is it, at some point we revert to acting more like those old people who constantly accused Jesus back in the day, than we do Jesus? Many things in this world are not of God, this truth is spoken repeatedly in scripture.
If only our life came with the technology to warn us when the storm was coming!
Over the last few years, I have retreated into my internal safe zone. I become quiet; my thoughts seem to run rampant between the past and the future. Fear creeps in, so I stay in the Word.
Through not fearing the ‘try’, I have been able to experience the closeness and intimate relationship through prayer that God wants to share with us.
An real experience with a fly..in church.. yep.
But today I had a blessing, that forever in mind will stay. As she bowed before God and his people, bowed her head and prayed.
This is me. Feeling overwhelmed by the juggling of emotions I have been managing for some time now. This is me, crying tears I thought dried up long ago.. This is me so completely lost that I don't want to look ahead, it frightens me. This is me feeling like a failure.
Reflection. Mirrored echos, such disgrace. Unfamiliar me, unfamiliar place.
