Behind the scenes of our lives, is a story. Some of us share it with others and others keep it silent. I have found that God uses pieces of my life to help someone. Some of the scary places of my life and things I never want anyone to know. I have learned some places of my life has helps others. God has taken me from a broken place of life and restored my soul. He has set my feet on a right path of thinking and living. I love the 42 Chapter of Psalm, please read:
Psalm 42
1 As the deer pants for streams of water,
so my soul pants for you, my God.
2 My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
When can I go and meet with God?
3 My tears have been my food
day and night,
while people say to me all day long,
“Where is your God?”
4 These things I remember
as I pour out my soul:
how I used to go to the house of God
under the protection of the Mighty One
with shouts of joy and praise
among the festive throng.
5 Why, my soul, are you downcast?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God.
6 My soul is downcast within me;
therefore I will remember you
from the land of the Jordan,
the heights of Hermon—from Mount Mizar.
7 Deep calls to deep
in the roar of your waterfalls;
all your waves and breakers
have swept over me.
8 By day the Lord directs his love,
at night his song is with me--
a prayer to the God of my life.
9 I say to God my Rock,
“Why have you forgotten me?
Why must I go about mourning,
oppressed by the enemy?”
10 My bones suffer mortal agony
as my foes taunt me,
saying to me all day long,
“Where is your God?”
11 Why, my soul, are you downcast?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God.
SPEAK IT OUT ~
God I will choose to praise you! There are times we might feel forgotten or alone, but God is right there. Things happen because of our own free will and choices. We have an opportunity to change a mindset and the path of our lives. Following God is the right path of life.
Hard circumstances of life, sin, wrong decisions and defeat is where the devil wants you to stay. God wants you to celebrate who you are in him and sin is gone. Once you repent and ask God into your heart, all things become new. It doesn't mean that you won't remember hard times or even hard some more hard times. You might need to remind yourself that God is on your side and things will become better. Speaking words of life to yourself is so important daily. Keep praying, seeking and staying on the path God has created for you.
My prayers continue for you, your family and friends.
