I got denied.......

[miss-a]

Hey Flower, I thought of something. What if God wants you living with your best friend? What if that's how He wants to provide for you and what if it is a blessing to her to be able to do it? What if it's really okay to let her do that until the SS comes through? What if it's not a bad thing?

It is so easy to judge our lives because they are not a cookie cutter of what we see others' to look like. I know because I've done it so much. The Lord often shows me that when I'm upset it is because I am judging my life and expecting it to look like someone elses. But what if it's not supposed to look like that?

If I were in your situation would you advise me to continue to judge my life and myself so harshly and tell me to move off to the woods where I'd be in danger and alone. Or would you remind me that Jesus loves me and in the end that's really enough, that the rest of this is all a smoke screen anyway, and that most of the people I look at and think I should be able to emulate aren't all that happy when no one is looking?

I think you would tell me to rest in Jesus and spend my days getting to know Him and His love for me, to do just what He says, "Come to Me, all you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest for your souls...."

Dear flower, I know that this time of your life is so very difficult for you and seems so uncertain. I am praying that Jesus will show you the way to a better life. I'm not doing so well right now either and I wish I could have good advice for you but I can only pray for you but praying is powerful. The other day all I could say was Jesus help me. Maybe you can do that too.
