This so touched my broken heart, I lost a son to suicide, hardest and toughest things in my life, in fact I walked away from the Lord for seven hard wrenching years. I was so angry at God!! I just did not understand why !! It’s taken me a long while to heal but I came back to God and he is helping me heal! I’m am seeing that he’s been there all the time he walked with me the whole time of my life, he saw all the pain❤I can see now that God is calling me to broken people , God is using my pain to heal other one person at a time

Yes. The Lord gave me an instruction he said wait and wait. Right after that I found a job as a waitress in a new McDonald’s restaurant that had an opening for a waiter. New restaurant, new procedures. I been there for 5 years and now at 62 I am in a sick leave because of stage two breast cancer. Quimo done. Now I have to go to radiology.

[@revelationsandvisions7477]

@@Lexilea68 you just defined that a woman is doing the job of a man and then falsely claiming that she is not usurping a man's position according to the holy Bible. She is blatantly defying God, because she knows that first, God prohibits it, and secondly, God commands that women be "silent in the church". Preaching to women is not being silent. And as much as women hate God for commanding this, it is the law of God. They will have to give an account of the rejection of HIS LAWS as well this woman give an account for her willful and blatant defiance towards God's laws.

This beautiful soul has been getting me through the hard days... thank you

[@bunny_0288]

I needed this message today. Oh thank you for this. I've been going through such a hard time the last few months. My husband and I have been trying to conceive for 12 years. 6 months ago, I got pregnant completely by surprise. I had long since given it all over to the Lord, and honestly I was in the process of accepting that His answer to our prayers for children may just be no. So getting pregnant was a wonderful and incredible surprise. We were so excited and so thankful. And then I had a very early miscarriage. And it just devastated me. I started having anxiety/panic attacks and have been really struggling ever since. I pray and pray and pray for answers. For comfort. For strength. Some days I feel like I'm barely hanging on. This message means so much to me. Waiting and perseverance and leaning on the Lord. I'm trying my hardest. I'm praying and seeking the Lord with all my heart. But gosh, it's still so hard. I miss my baby every day. I think about how far along I'd be now. Feeling kicks and wiggles, picking out a name, preparing a nursery. And instead, I'm back in the waiting, but it's so much harder now. Because I got a little taste of it. When I saw the positive pregnancy test, one feeling I had that I hadn't expected was relief. Such a profound sense of relief that the waiting was finally over after so many years. So to be thrown back into the waiting just hurts. It's just so hard. But I am holding onto the promise that God has something better planned for us. I don't know what that is, but I am praying and asking God to show me what that is.

[@journeytofaith9861]

Sara, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. When I first saw your I said, God if you did for the Sara in the Bible and Hannah, you can still do it for this Sara because you are the same, yesterday, today, and forever. I can’t imagine how difficult it must be for you. Waiting is hard, it is of the most difficult thing to do, but there is always light at the end of the tunnel. I don’t know what he has planned for you and your husband, but we know he get better for you. Praying you.

[@bunny_0288]

@@journeytofaith9861 Thank you so much for this sweet comment. Overall, I've been doing better, but I'm approaching what should have been my due date. May 14, and I also realized this week that that is also Mother's Day. It's hard not to think about how wonderful that would have been. Mother's Day is always such a hard day. Between infertility and losing my own mother a few years ago, it is always tough. This year it feels impossible. But I know God will get me through it. And other than the dread of my approaching due date, I have been doing much better, so I'm thankful for that. I don't feel like I'm crumbling under the weight of this anymore. I appreciate this comment and your encouragement so much ❤

[@journeytofaith9861]

@@bunny_0288 I'm glad you are feeling better! I grow up in an orphanage in Sierra Leone, West Africa, I was there for almost 7 years. I always wanted to have a family. I prayed to God for years. After 7 years, I was finally adopted at the age of 17, that alone was a battle to get my adoption process to go through. I know my story is not even close to your pain, but I just wanted to share a little bit of my story maybe this will also help you. Continue praying for you and your spouse. The waiting season is the hardest, but God is always on time, he is never early, not late; he is always on time. Even though it might not happen as soon as we want it, he is always on time. Your waiting season will end soon! Believing with you!

@@journeytofaith9861 Oh thank you so much for sharing your story. I'm so glad you were adopted and have a forever family. That makes my heart so happy. One thing is, please don't diminish your pain or what you went through or think that what I went through was worse. Pain is pain and waiting is waiting no matter what it is. I can't imagine going through what you went through, and I admire your faith and perseverance for praying for all those years even when I'm sure there were times you wanted to give up.
