Today my heart hurts Romans 5:3-5 And not only so. but we glory in tribulations also, knowing that tribulation worketh patience. And patience, experience; and experience hope.
And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.[kjv]
Sometimes my burdens just seem endless. I go through the same trials over and over again, making the very same mistakes! The last time, I knew this was it.
I was done, I had mastered a certain area of my life.
Today however my heart hurts as I realize I am not there yet
Have you ever been there?
Take heart,God loves both you and me and He will never forsake us. He allows these trials to happen that He might give us freedom through them, and show His never ending love.
Through our troubles God develops perseverance, proven character, hope, and love.
Theresa of Avila wrote
We have always seen those that were closest with the Lord were those with the greatest trials. God is drawing us to Him with repeated problem, do not be discourage. Cling to Him and He will fill you with His love.
Be Careful for nothing
Be prayful for everything
Be Thankful for anything
In His Service
