God is so good to encourage us in many different ways. I won't say much, but I will say that hearing how much God's been moving and working in your life is helpful and reassuring. <br />Truly, if He didn't have all of me, I'd have fallen apart years ago. =] I'm beginning to feel His goodness again, and it eases my heart. <br />Indeed, God bless. Prayer is always appreciated.Laura Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01442801277316374894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-889875981308776758.post-17330675313277665042010-08-18T21:36:00.630-07:002010-08-18T21:36:00.630-07:00I really, truly felt led to write and post that BT...I really, truly felt led to write and post that BTW...T.J.

To the point of making me completely useless in all aspects of life.<br />It was only through the power of God Almighty that I've been able to focus on Him. His power and a choice on my part.<br />Once I arrived at the place where I could fully rely on Him for EVERYTHING, my life changed completely! Just doing what I know that He wants me to and not doing what I know that He wants me NOT to... I've been blessed beyond all measure and reason. :) If I listed the blessings here, it'd sound like I was making it up. ;) Truly, truth is stranger than fiction! ;):) Peace is not the least of those blessings, and let me tell you, man alive, was I a wreck...<br />Stand strong ladies and remember that God loves you more than anyone on this planet ever could. Give Him your all and He'll give back to you SO much more than you could ever dream or imagine! I know this from firsthand experience. Trust me, the Father has got your back. And your front and your heart and the rest of you too. :)<br />God bless, I'm praying for you both. :)T.J.

Hm... yeah, I guess so, about being in touch. That makes sense.<br />Yeah... all right. I love you too! I'm going to try and write on my blog more soon, but I don't know when it'll happen.Laura Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01442801277316374894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-889875981308776758.post-4799808020380372992010-08-18T12:01:06.343-07:002010-08-18T12:01:06.343-07:00I'm glad that your feelings are rising to the ...I'm glad that your feelings are rising to the surface, Laura. I have yet to cry physically. <br />God will have you acknowledge what you need to work through when it is time. You always have Him, He never leaves you or forsakes you, never has, never will. This never changes. So He won't leave you to deal with it alone so don't try to deal with it without Him. Wait on His perfect timing. You may feel out of touch but that is probably actually because you are IN touch. You are recognizing the fact that something is off so your discernment is obviously working.<br />He is bringing things up though already so trust that He will bring you completely through it all. Our wounded places are so precious to Him. He longs to soothe them and bring healing to our hearts. I love you!Jenny Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05773490336384219238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-889875981308776758.post-6408306922354392072010-08-18T08:53:34.663-07:002010-08-18T08:53:34.663-07:00Oh mannn, Jenny. This spoke to me so much. Though ...Oh mannn, Jenny. This spoke to me so much. Though I was feeling better on Saturday when we prayed together, I realized later that any relief that I've found lately has been on the surface. It's been temporary. And whenever I get back to myself, there's a dull pain there that won't leave me, and won't allow me true joy. Anytime that I am verbal about what's going on, acknowledging it, tears accompany my words. I've locked things up so that it has to escape when it possibly can.<br />I need that deep touch so much, that freedom. I am so, so glad that you've had such a week! That's beyond incredible. You said something about "what your subconscious was hiding from me" that struck me, because I've wondered lately what blocks mine has placed, what wounds endure there, that haven't yet been touched. I know that there's a lot that was hammered deep into me that needs to be cut away, and I've wondered how to address that. I've felt unsettled and out of place spiritually, and it's been hard for me to connect to God, even in my thought life and how I look at things.<br />"I want You and You alone". That's where I need to reach, past the confusion, frustration, and pain of my circumstances. I need to be there so badly. I've had glimpses of living that way, but I know that I haven't had it completely. <br />Thank you for being faithful to share these things through your blog!

Not quite to the same degree that you've expierenced, but I can relate.<br />It's very encouraging to hear about and see other people going through the same things-ish that I'm going through. Not that I'd wish it on anyone, but that God's bringing us through similar circumstances.<br />Thank you for chasing after Him. It's good to know that there're people out there doing that. :)<br />God bless. :)T.J. Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01050084661616360028noreply@blogger.com
