After reading the post JesusChick wrote, I decided I need to write stuff more like that. Because people need
to hear it. Its not just them that go through stuff like that. I want to let them\you know , we all feel pain.
You can say all you want that you have not experienced it, but the truth is you have or you might , I know I
have and I still am. We have been so overwhelmed at times with what we should have, could have and ought
to have done or not done. We often have just put a smile on our faces and pretend like everything is all
good, when its not. We are hurting maybe because of loved ones dying, have fallen from faith, parents are
divorced, we aren't good at many things, you feel like you don't fit in, or are dealing with loneliness, sickness, financial problems, even
just because you think you have no purpose in life, whatever it is someone else is feeling it too. Faith is the
substance of things HOPED FOR the evidence of things NOT SEEN. Life can feel unfair sometimes, but
you have to remember it will ALL be made right in the end for those who love Him(the Lord).

Every time those tears flow from your eyes the Lord is keeping them in a bottle in heaven.
Every Prayer you pray the Lord is listening.
When you are grieving the Lord is grieving with you.
The Lord answers prayers, but at his own pace.
I know by now you are probably like....."Uhmm, thanks?, this is kinda different than your usual posts" If you are that's okay because.....it is different than my other posts. I probably won't do many posts like this only because I like to look at the happy things more than the sad.
Jeremiah 29:11- "For I know the plans I have for you", declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future"
Every time I read this verse it gives me a ray of hope. :))
Love it Cindi!! Beautiful :) xx
