Love is intentional. It’s not just something you feel. Not just something you say. Not just something you do. It’s something you practice. Over & over. None of us is great at love by human nature. Enduring love comes by Holy Spirit nurture. Day in, day out. We cannot give what we will not receive.
Healing is such a process. And when more hurtful things happen in the midst of our healing, it’s only natural for bitterness to come knocking.
But I’m learning that bitterness doesn’t protect me or prove anything. It only turns me into someone I don’t want to be.
God doesn’t expect us to “handle” everything we’re facing. He wants us to hand it over to Him.
He doesn’t want us to rally more of our own strength. He wants us to rely solely on His strength.
We may not get all of the answers we want to our “why” questions. But we can ask God to help us catch glimpses of His faithfulness in the midst of our pain and confusion.
We can hear His whispers of, "No matter what, I've got this. I've got you. And I'll hold on to you forever."
God please help me know how to keep my thoughts on You. I want Your voice to be the loudest in my life right now.
“You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!” | Isaiah 26:3
