Welcome!
There are times in life when life is hitting hard and you're not sure if you can take another step, or if you even want to.
That is the very place I was the other day. I told God, "I didn't want to do this any longer". Honestly, I didn't know if I emotionally could. But, I knew I had to, I would have been for fitting too much to give up and walk away from life. That was this past labor day weekend 2018.
There are times in life when as the bible says in Ephesians 6:13-14 ..." having done all to stand. 14 Stand there for...
These scriptures are talking about putting on the armor of God.. Verses 14-17.
This, in my opinion, is something the church "Christians" need to do, "practice " on a consistent basis. I spend good quality time with God daily, I have a firm foundation. Yet, the circumstances of life became too much to want to continue as I was. I just couldn't keep moving in the same direction. I needed a word from God. I didn't want strength to keep going as, 1 Corinthians 10:13 talks about. I know His grace "strength" is sufficient, He has given me strength all my life to go through the storms "trials" of life. I needed more than strength to survive.
Sunday evenings are our bible study night, we had a special speaker leading the study that labor day weekend. I told God before I left for the study that night that I needed to hear from Him, I needed a word. The topic that night was to everyone, it was about giving God the hidden places of your heart. Joel 2:12. Then, the one leading the study spoke to me about what was on his heart to tell me. The words he spoke to me brought me to tears almost instantly. This person does not know anything about me or my life. There are many things I keep to myself, "not everyone needs to know our business" God spoke to the deep things through this person, some of which I haven't even told my closest friend.
I am holding God to His word to me that night. I trust Him to keep His word. He has never failed me or let me down.
