But God hasn't answered . I've prayed for years that he would get me out of everything I'm in, but it never happens. I feel like I'm in a prison. I want so much to tell someone the real reason why everything is the way it is with me, but I can't because it hurts so I just end up lying or whatever to try to hide my life. I don't know if anyone has ever lived the life I have-I know what it sounds like....and it's not that. The only one I can talk to is God, but He doesn't seem to be there. I have no one to feel accountable to or to try to do anything for. Like I've cheated in school on and off since eight grade because there's no reason to try. I don't even want to go to bed at night because if I do I'll wake up the next morning and start all over again. It's like torture because I know what's wrong but I can't get out of it. It's like my life is a knot that every time I try to untie it I get it more messed up. I've been waiting for God for years but He doesn't seem to be there. I hate saying this because I know it sounds like all the other ranty complaining threads I've posted but it hurts like the weight of the world and I'm so tired of hiding my life and lies.
Selenah, I do not know what it was that keeps you from receiving all that is God's gift to you in Jesus.
But nothing you do, can separate you from the love of Jesus.
Know this in faith!
I understand what you mean when you say you hate going to bed because you know tomorrow will be the same.
We all face something that wants to steal all that is Jesus from us.
I hate going to sleep, because I know there is no escape from the pain that assaults my body.
It is in my sleep, and the first thing that fills me when I wake.
Im telling you about this not for any sympathy, but to witness to you how Gods power gives one the streangth to awaken every day.
When I open my eyes, I know only this pain and weakness that tries to steal my life, I want nothing more than to go back to sleep and leave everything .
But instead, I call out in Jesus to God Our Father, asking Him to give me the streangth to open my eyes, and live another day.
I continue to pray again and again through out the day, then pray again before I sleep and to sleep.
Because it is the streangth and hope in Jesus , given by God Our Father that sustains me.
I have prayed for over twenty years for healing, but the answer is my grace is sufficient for you.
You know what, it is!
Everything I am is because of God's love, all that is done and is my ife is from Jesus!
Because God created you and I and every person out of His love and because of His love.
Then sent Jesus to bring the perfecting of His love in giving us eternal life.
Selenah, when God created you he knew all you would do, He created you because of His love for you.
Then gave you Jesus so for you to be Holy and pleasing in His sight!
Keep praying, keep holding on, know you were loved before you were created.
Call out to Jesus , in every moment and in every time of lonelyness.
Jesus is bringing in you His presance, the faith that opens the door to Him!
I know it seems so very bleak, but it is really the time of the perfecting love of Jesus!
Understand that my calling out to God for the streangth everyday is not about what I do, it is learning what God does in me through Jesus!
Nothing you can do can separate you from the love of God in Jesus for you!
I continue to pray for you in Jesus Christ is Lord come in the flesh.
Hugs and God bless.
