Sometimes I feel like Job - in the bible - like my life is a cursed existence.. a painful, slow and very sure death. And let's be honest we aren't going to live forever? are we? But I really take comfort in knowing that I am not alone - Job describes a man's life like a breath, nothing to savor really..
So am I suicidal? No...way!!! I am so happy to be here... so so happy!! cause in my lifetime everyday I get to worship the Lord.!!! my Creator the Lord of the heavens and the earth.. and the thought that I will meet Him someday and fall at His feet to say that He is God... I can hardly wait..But even while I am here in this body that really limits me that drags away from true union with my Father my soul and my Spirit scream and shout praise to God in the sound that no creature can hear with their ears..
I praise Him while I am here.. My flesh in its lusts dies for a moment to praise Him that gives it life.. Loved ones I don't know what trouble you may be going through.. but will you die just for a moment and engage your heart to just full, unadulterated praise to the Lord, that was that is and that will be forever..
Praise our God for He is magnificent and beautiful and wise.. and worthy. and best of all because even though we are in pain but for a moment, even though we are in the depths of despair and broken heartedness but for a moment very very soon His glory will be revealed to us and all these things that we care about won't matter a lot.
And guess what as we eagerly await to meet our First love, He is eagerly awaiting us - hoping that while you are here - you will be faithful and hang on to His promises and after you have suffered a while you will more fully appreciate Him that is so passionate about you.. You couldn't possibly ever love Him more than He loves you - so hold on just a little while longer and He will not tarry...
Be faithful more now than ever for your Salvation is near... God is passionately in love with You.. Hang on..


thanks for the wonderful encouragement. i hope it encourages you to know that you are not alone in your sadness. however the promise of heaven (not to mention God's constant presence) helps us keep on keeping on. amen!
