Who knew life could be so hard?
Oh, right... God did.
He has known every temptation before I existed.
He knows my every fear and worry, every sadness that stabs through my heart.
He loves me SO PASSIONATELY that He DIED for me.
"Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need."
Hebrews 4:14-16
My Jesus is always with me, even to the end of the age.
My Abba is the King of my life, and yet calls me daughter. It is He whom I long to see one day - whose lap I picture when I'm curled up and crying - whose arms I ache to be held by.
His Spirit waits for my submission before He envelops me in comfort and reminds me of the everlasting promises.
I am not alone.
This is but a battle -- The war is already won.
To the one God of heaven and earth be glory forever!
