Makes me think of the lyrics from a song in the movie Fiddler on the Roof ( one of my faves ) , the song is called : To Life and the lyric is ; God would like us to be joyful even when our hearts lie panting on the floor . Whatever this world throws at us , we must thank God always , everything that happens to us is teaching us something , about ourselves , this world etc . I'm in pain all day every day and have been since my late 20's , I have a heart condition , permenant vertigo and one or two other annoying things 🙄 but through the love of God and in Christ I can cope and even find joy and pleasure in this world , only because I know that awesome things r coming and , I can b there to c and b a part of God's plan . The earth shall be filled with the Glory of the Lord . We shall mount up as if on eagle's wings ! Give God the Glory ! 😁😁😁

"Speaking health, healing and restoration over Suze's body in Jesus name, further commanding any spirit of infirmity to loose her and never return in Jesus name."

how do you define complaining vs wrestling. Even Jacon wouldn't let God go until he blessed him.

I hate being double minded and catch myself all the time forgetting about all the blessings and focusing on the struggles.

And even David had some pretty discouraged Psalms in there.

Jesus was very clear, once we repent He remembers them no more.
The adversary is where the nagging comes from.

Your cruelty is breathtaking. Perhaps unintended, but cruel still. Proverbs 25:20.

But if you must have new testament... Even the one Jesus said was the greatest natural man alive, John the Baptist, got discouraged enough to ask Jesus "Did I really get it right?" And Peter sure did some crying after he told people he didn't know Jesus.

Sometimes it's okay to cry. Sometimes we hurt. "It's okay to sit on your pity pot every now and then. Just be sure to flush when you get up."

Lately I've been winning
Battles left and right
But even winners
Can get wounded in the fight
People say that I'm amazing
Strong beyond my years
But they don't see inside of me
I'm hiding all the tears

They don't know
That I go running home
When I fall down
They don't know
Who picks me up
When no one is around
I drop my sword
And cry for a while
Cause deep inside this armor
The warrior is a child

Something very intriguing about David and His Father, Jesse. David means Beloved, while Jesse means My Redeemer. That's all.
