It’s always very difficult to put our emotions into words, simply because we do not feel the entirety of one emotion at any given time. We often feel a fusion of different emotions towards a certain situation or just general circumstances in our lives. Similarly our lives and who we have allowed ourselves to be as individuals is not reduced to one aspect of our nature or ability but combines internal and external cues. Therefore it is not astonishing that once in a while all of these things can be tremendously overwhelming, especially the feeling of the inability to get ahead with consistent mishaps from every direction.
However, it is most fundamental that we understand that a relationship with God does not equate a life without issues, but rather changes our attitude and perception towards adversity and this gives us the ability to live above our predicament. Walking with God allows the understanding that as a result of ‘sonship’ we will be chastened and disciplined which could also come in the form of trials and tribulations. We quickly forget the promises of God when we are going through these trials and our hearts sometimes begins to turn from Him. We must make every effort to not be consumed by pain but to learn through it all the while remembering why you chose to respond to His call. It is greatly disheartening to know that it is possible to know God and still be considerably depressed, anxious, disappointed with life, hopeless or ultimately ‘numb’ because caring hurts too much. The key to overcoming is to have the willingness to overcome. It’s okay to not always be alright but it’s not okay to be completely broken that is becomes comfortable for us. We should aim to see ourselves the way God sees us. Aspiring and having a desire to push no matter what our circumstances are, and understanding that where we are in our lives is not the end for us. We are only hopeless when we no longer have a will or zeal to become better people. Let your heart know that it is remarkable in all its efforts. And live a life of possibilities.
