It's Sunday night, and well...I'm completely spent. It's been a trying day, trying week. I've worked hard to do what I'm supposed to do and be the woman I want to be, and yet I've fallen short. Again. And I cry tonight... I cry in frustration and sadness and almost hopelessness. I cry to a God that I know understands my tears. So tonight, as my eyes grow heavy and my heart still heavier, I search for healing, because I am in desperate need of it.

James 5:16 says, "Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed."
ReplyDeleteWhatever it is, dear sister, that caused the hurt and soreness in your heart last night, is not too dark for God's cleansing light. He brings the sun to rise on a new day for us, and I'm thankful you shared your heart with us, because you need to know by God's grace you're forgiven and free today!! :) In faith, it's never too late to be brand new, like you once said :)
I'll be praying for you today, that you have a deep peace and joy. Thank you again for your post; it's important as Christians that we sometimes be vulnerable to each other and not pretend like we've got it all together all the time.
I respect your honesty.
Love you so much honey!!
I don't usually stray from the NIV, though I know there is one/are couple more that are supposed to be good, but this is one my Baptist friend shared with me in high school that I have kept close to heart from the KJV: "Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?" Ps. 56:8
ReplyDeleteHe knows you that much--each one of your tears he catches "in a bottle." He knows and loves you best of all!
I'm praying for you Courtney! No matter how hard our days may be, everything always always always gets better. :)
