Suffering More Than That
I cried unto The Lord and He heard my plea. “How long O Lord must I suffer this affliction, How long O Lord?” My heart beats wildly all the time. When I sleep, it is there, when I rise it is there, when I work, it is there. I hide it with the joy of my salvation, unspeakable joy. I hide it with the peace you have given me, peace that surpasses understanding. I hide it in your love that cannot be measured. My tears well up as I write down these words. I thought maybe I could find someone with enough faith that if they prayed for me The Lord would act and relieve my suffering. I was looking for a man or a woman of faith. I looked to the left, and I looked to the right, and people started to pray for me and I had hope because I came unto agreement with them. Still the suffering continued and my tears flowed down my face. I did not understand because I know The Lord answers my prayers for others. I have seen people saved, cancer healed and many miracles because I believe without doubting my Fathers words. When we abide in Him and Him in us he says, “ask anything in my Name and I will do it.” So I took my petition unto The Lord and He answered me. “Take your sufferings as a good soldier in Christ Jesus, for suffering produces endurance and endurance produces character and character produces hope.” My suffering continued for a while, and once again I asked, “how long O Lord must I suffer with this affliction?” And He answered me, “My son, others before you have suffered more than you, Be strong, and keep walking, for you can do all things in Me.” My suffering continued for I while and I decided to take a 40 day prayer petition untoThe Lord for myself for I have always put the suffering of others before myself as was taught on The Cross. I am on day 3 and I am already feeling better. While writing this, the words came unto me, “I will lift that off you my son.” What a merciful Father we have, The king of mercies is He, tender mercies. All Glory, Honor, and Power belong to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  |
