Our Powerful God sees past the physical pain of this world. Once we're on the other side of this painful world, none of that pain will matter . . . none of it. Jesus is over His death. He "survived" death . . . He made it through that unbelievable moment, and we, too, will make it through our moment of death as well. We'll be ok. We will.

It IS heartbreaking, I have heard it taught that if a person goes into ministry they must be prepared to have their heart broken every day. Are we not all in ministry? I believe we are, and you have related this as well since you have answered His knock on the door of your heart.
I give thanks for you that you are our sister in Christ.
Thank you for being here.
Bless you in Jesus name.

You're a good soul! And be amazed that you have been given this sensitive Heart regarding the salvation of the lost . . . and there are so many, here, that are just that . . . completely lost.
Here is a description of what has happened to you . . . this is amazing!
Ezekiel 36:25-27 NLT - "Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean. Your filth will be washed away, and you will no longer worship idols. And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart. And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations."
The Love you have in your Heart is a Love that comes from God and none other! You "feel" because God allows you to feel just as you do. The only person that can ever possess the True Love of Christ, are those who have been given this love.
1 Corinthians 13:1-2 NLT - "If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn't love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God's secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn't love others, I would be nothing."
But . . . YOU [are] "something" . . . you are [not] nothing, but you [are] something because God gave you this Love that only comes from Him.
Ephesians 3:19 NLT - "May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God."
You . . . have experienced the Love of Christ when He Circumcised your Heart (removed the source of Evil thinking that was once in your mind), and gave you a new Source of thinking . . . and that is thinking that comes from the Effectual Laws of the Spirit of Life.
Romans 8:2 KJV - "For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death."
A person can only take on the Effectual Laws of the Spirit of Life unless their Sin Nature is cut out and removed, just as Col 2:9-11 clearly states.
Colossians 2:11 NLT - "When you came to Christ, you were "circumcised," but not by a physical procedure. Christ performed a spiritual circumcision--the cutting away of your sinful nature."
That Sinful "Way" about ourselves must be removed . . . the Adamic Curse that was applied to the entire physical world . . . the Evil thinking that comes with it is defeated and destroyed. In fact, that Evil Way about us is what places us into a position of "death" between us and the Lord.
Colossians 2:13 NLT - "You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins."
And so when your Sinful Nature is cut away, it is replaced with a New, Divine Nature . . . and this New Nature is what Causes us to think and behave in ways that are in alignment with the Spirit. And after receiving this new "Way" of thinking, and after being cleansed of the Adamic Curse, we escape the corruption of this world! We have been set free! We are now like Christ, a True Nazarene . . . meaning, one who is set apart!
If you didn't understand how this process works, I hope that you can see it clearly . . . now.
May the Lord continue to Bless you.

I was raised in a Christian home but when I was a teenager I have questioned my faith and I wanted to do everything teen does drink and party with my friends who did it stuff in middle and high school but I don’t do it because I was a good girl . I still want to church with my parents but I keep not believing until I was 17 Jesus hugged me at church while we are praising him I felt him loving me and hugging me because he missed me that’s the day I re dedicated my life back to Jesus I have never ever been the same after that day we are closer than before and I dedicated my life to Jesus at 10 years old. I’m so grateful that he accepted me back as a child and I’m so grateful that I’m back home and I will never ever run alway from him anymore.
That is a beautiful Transformation story! Do you know what happened to you that day? Did you know that there is scripture that describes exactly what Jesus did to and for you? Check this out!!!! (And be sure to memorize these verses!)
Colossians 2:9-15 - "For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority.
When you came to Christ, you were “circumcised,” but not by a physical procedure. Christ performed a spiritual circumcision—the cutting away of your sinful nature. For you were buried with Christ when you were baptized. And with him you were raised to new life because you trusted the mighty power of God, who raised Christ from the dead.
You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins. He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross. In this way, he disarmed the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by his victory over them on the cross."
