For every bad seed the devil whispers in our ear whether by someone or our own thoughts….God says trust in me.
For every bit of joy the devil is trying to steal from us…God says trust in me.
The devil is a thief and a liar. God is holy and sovereign.
I am at a cross road in my life. Do I continue to fight or do I allow the devil to win…yet again in my life.
I know I will always make mistakes, I will always hurt someone…somehow, and I will always let people down. I also know that my righteousness will not be complete until I get to glory.
I have had a lot pain in my life in my almost 51 years and a lot of it came by my own actions and choices, though seemingly right in my own head at the time. I know that the pain hurts, especially this one. This wound is deep.
But I have also had a lot of good times too.
But I choose to trust God until the day he does call me home. His word say ALL things work together for the good, for those called according to His purpose. And every believer is called for His purpose And His glory no matter our station in life.
Yes, I am hurting. But I will be ok. And one day I will be better.
God bless guys. I love you all.
Stu
*This was written back in 2016. I just updated the amount of years spent on this Earth. It still is a relatable post as I am hurting now…just for totally different reasons than I was three years ago. The truth behind the post…I will always trust God no matter the circumstances surroundng me!*
God bless you and I pray that he guides your steps and comfort you as you walk thru the valley. Amen!

Stu, no matter what you are going through, God accompanies you and brings comfort.
“Lord, even when your path takes me through
the valley of deepest darkness,
fear will never conquer me, for you already have!
You remain close to me and lead me through it all the way.
Your authority is my strength and my peace.
The comfort of your love takes away my fear.
I’ll never be lonely, for you are near.
You become my delicious feast
even when my enemies dare to fight.
You anoint me with the fragrance of your Holy Spirit;
you give me all I can drink of you until my heart overflows.
So why would I fear the future?” (Psalm 23:4-6 TPT)
Father God, thank you that your Son Jesus, took all of Stu’s pain. Your comforting presence expels the pain. Pain leave, in the name of Jesus. The peace that passes all understanding guards Stu’s heart and mind, through Christ Jesus. Amen

Huh. Just saw this and don’t know how I missed it before.
Anyway…
Pretty raw post. Right out there. Thank you for sharing. 🙏 Thank you for sharing the hurt, but also for sharing the Healer. We can all relate.

It’s ok Kathy. This is one of those slip through the cracks type of posts. Though not intentional.
I’m glad you found it. I simply can not share my hurts without sharing the One who keeps me going despite it all. It took me about a year to get over that hurt from three years ago. The wound just kept getting torn open.
