EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:
As tragedy happens, it’s normal to feel like life comes to a complete standstill. It could be anything in each of our lives that strikes at us unaware.
When life comes to a halt at these times, what does one do? We all may react differently. I may take a complete day and not be able to get out of my pajamas! It’s ok…
You just can’t see it yet, and even though it’s hard for any of us to imagine that the future could be any different from now, be assured healing and restoration are happening, my friends.
You won’t always feel this way; there will be an end. God and His promises are true. Don’t try to get around the suffering; let God get His arms around you!
Please take the moments with God that He offers. Rest in His quietness, stillness, and peace of His eternal Word. If you walk step by step with Him through it all, your pain will actually subside. Reach up and grasp the hand of your heavenly Father.
Your Father wants to comfort you and shoulder your grief. Even if your well of tears does not seem to run dry, God’s presence with you will allow you to walk through the river of grief to the other side. God will provide enough light for your next step. Trust Him. I’m living proof that where He is, I am comforted, ALWAYS. (and I know where to find Him)
“God’s tracks take us to an oasis of peace, the quiet brook of bliss; that’s where He restores and revives my life.
(Psalm 23: 2-3 Tpt.)
I pray this helps you.
