I firmly believe in the power of prayer. I have had my fair share of aches and pains throughout my 30 years of living. I never understood some of it, but most of it was brought on by my own stupidity.
You see, I can't not believe in a God. I've seen evidence and the patterns of my life lets me know that there is a God. I honestly do not care if you are offended by my Jesus praising posts. He's done so much and He's been so good. How could I not want to give everything back to Him?
Look at the main events in my life and tell me if you can see the proof. I could have died at any point. Well, I'm sure I was "gone" for a brief moment, but God brought me back. He wasn't finished with me yet!
I may experience pain not as a result from my own stupidity, but from my own body and it's way of telling me something is wrong. I can't tell you how many times I've cried out in pain. I've lost count.
He is my Healer. That's it. That's all I ever know of Him. He's God my Provider. He's saved me. He didn't have to, but He did and I can't thank God enough for it.
I don't tell people my every ache and pain. I try not to complain, but sometimes the hurt is so bad that my body wants to curl up and cry.
My life isn't mine. I don't own anything. It can be taken away at any time. He gives and takes away. He is God. He's so good. He's on my side. He will fight for me! That's how much God loves me. He raises up a standard against the enemy. He blocks Satan's move! He will NOT let it be!!!!!
It doesn't matter what you are going through because believe it or not, it's not up to YOU! You didn't create you so, therefore YOU cannot tell YOU what to do!
You are proof that God exists. You are the greatest masterpiece He has ever created. He created you with tender love and care. You are His most prized possession. The apple of His eye. His beloved. His child. You are a worthy of love and God created you with a purpose in mind.
He didn't create you to take up space. He gave His one and only son so that you can have life and have it more abundantly not just so that you can merely exist.
I may do a bunch of stupid things throughout my lifetime, but God will always see me as His baby. The one who will always need Him to love and care for me. He's the only Dr, Dad, helper, Savior, Healer, provider and whatever else I will need God.
That's it. There's nothing else I could want or need. I accept whatever God has for me. I love and respect His decisions for my life. Do you?
I'm going back to bed. Goodnight and sweet dreams.
