Blessings in the Seasons of Brokenness

https://livinghisword.org/what-does-it-mean-to-be-set-apart-for-god/ this may or may not help. If you try and confirm to the world and to Jesus at the same time, it is impossible and makes life very difficult, its one or the other. I know how difficult it is, as I have been through it. I am still a work in progress, thanks to the patience of the Lord and what he has had me do physically to represent that.

JOHN 14:27.
Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you.
Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Peaks and valleys, the bones and skins of our 'new-walk-in-Christ' -
our prayers are with you and yours sweetheart...

Despite my blessings that I am so very thankful for, I confess I have been in a season of brokenness. One that it seems has been coming for awhile. It has taken me to depths unfamiliar to me, lower than ever before. I remind my knowing that I must not give up and cleave to my Lord. To my master on my spiritual knees, letting go of any need for anything but Him.


Anyway, my daughter recommended a book that has been such a blessing so I wanted to share. If you are in a less than comfy season, consider looking at this book.


Mac Lucado's Traveling Light. It is filled with biblical truths and might offer a reminder to your spirit as it did mine just how blessed we are when we let go of all things, finding contentment and peace in Him alone.


I pray we all continue to embrace our Lord with tender loving care, rejoicing always in Him.

Much love in our beautiful and sufficient Lord and Saviour.

Ideally every day of our lives would be filled with joy but that
can never be. Not only in joy but the entire world is yin and
yang. If we had never suffered, we would never know what joy
is. At the low points prayer is really essential. But even with
that we can't buy joy or borrow it. When it is ready it will shower
it's graces upon you. Be still and trust God and the answer will come.

Thank you for posting Charli Renee, this whole life is like an iceberg, we omly see the part above water, 9/10 is unseen. Our best is ahead of us, thanks to Jesus.

Hi CharliRenee. I am so sorry for what you have been experiencing. Sometimes there are no reasons that make sense. We don't know why it starts or when it will end. All I can say is that the love and kindness you have shared with people here really speaks to your heart. You mean a lot to a lot of people. You are an encourager and prayer warrior. Even now, by sharing, you give permission to others to admit to struggling. It does not help anyone when we are told to act happy if we are not. We are allowed our seasons. I will be praying for you. I've gone through times of such emotional pain it hurt to breath. They were real. Thank you for being so honest and if there is anything you need from your sisters and brothers here please ask. If you have certain prayer requests please feel free to message me. It would be a privilege. I am betting there are many others who would like to be able to lift you up. You are pretty special.

It is wonderful seeing you here sharing your gift(s) of wisdom. It seems our goal is to want nothing unless it is of our Savior. We pray this, and rely that He finish the work He began in each of us, that perfection that will only be on His day when HE completes us.

This not being perfect in this age is annoying but we have our Champion toget us through. Praise Jesus, Yeshua, and all glory be to Him. May all your losses be turned to triumphal gain in our Savior, amen.
