EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:
“You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, that I might sing praises to you and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever.” (Psalm 30:10)
Pain is for real and it becomes heavy when it reaches into our minds and causes frustration or anxiety. We need to address it and take it to God with full faith before it can be healed. The hurts and the agony often come at times when we never anticipate it. Pain can fester beneath the surface of life, but it begins taking us into sad places we have no business going as a daughter of God. Releasing our pain in all forms comes with a price, TRUST!
If you’ve gone around the mountain with no breakthroughs then please try moving into a place of joy and thanksgiving with your thoughts and trust God. Try to praise God in these situations even when it hurts. Read books about God’s love for you when you feel pain, frustration, or doubt. Alter your thoughts and focus on scripture and God and His goodness. Memorizing scripture about His love and faithful compassion for you will give you strength. Voice it out loud in your prayers back to God, it helps.
God wants you to come to Him with all that you have, your burdens, and your heavy-laden heart.
“Come to Me all you that labor and are heavy ladened and I will give you rest.” ( Matthew 11:28)
God will heal your wounds, He will help your thoughts and strengthen your body and mind. Your story is not over yet and do not let anyone tell you otherwise.
“You have a future,” God says.
There are new spacious places and God longs to explore them with you. Give Him room to do so.
Our loving God is a Promise Maker and a Promise Keeper who will take you through the barren field just as He took me and has taken so many others.
When I found Him with a surrendered heart, I became fertile again. I was bursting with life and became ready to serve Him with my whole heart.
As you worship God today, thank Him for saving your soul. Thank Him for making you whole again. Thank Him that He’s on top of every hidden hurt, every embedded fear, and every depressed thought you have. God removed them one by one! He did it for me in my life – He will do the same for you!
Ask God for a new vision for your life today. One that will take you from mourning into dancing. Be determined to saturate your mind with Christ each day that’s what I did in the waiting while I went through the MRIs and it worked.  I do this every day. God and His Word and declarations I say each day, help. His mercies are new each morning.💕
