Greetings from Alaska,
I am truly grateful for anyone that has prayed for me. Thank you so much!
I woke this morning at around 5:30 AM and I felt terrible. I mean really bad.
I drank some water, watched a few videos and then began reading the psalms and praying the psalms. I started to feel better.
I have said it before, but reading the Psalms is like a B12 shot. It’s like God filled me with positive feelings. Of course, then my fear is the negative feelings coming back.
It’s hard to describe how painful it is to walk in my shoes right now. I know, there are people in this old sinful world that are walking in much more difficult shoes.
Feeling hopeless is not a fun feeling. My job that I had for nearly a month gave me hope and strength. It gave me a way out of some of the problems caused by unemployment.
“Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
But when the desire comes, it is a tree of life (Prov 13:12).”
A week ago, Monday, I lost my job. It’s so painful because I had given my life to that job. I was dedicated to being successful in it. I refuse to lie about the QA samples, and that was one reason that probably made the decision for me.
Last night was my eighth night in the primitive apartment. I’m so grateful for it. It is free. But honestly, it’s not great. It’s in the basement of the house and it is dark and cluttered. I’m sure I’m breathing some things I shouldn’t be breathing.
I know difficult things are often in the motivation to improve our lives. As humans, we desire better and so difficulty causes us to search for something better.
I cannot tell you how much help the psalms have given me. I have almost finished the psalms for June. I think I have four or five more Psalms and I’ll be done. I highly recommend using the psalms to help you through any trial.
I have to keep reminding myself that God knows exactly where I am at (Ps 139). He knows my pain. He knows my tears. He knows my concerns. He knows everything and that gives me strength.
We live in a world of humans, often times humans are mainly concerned about themselves rather than others. It’s so easy to overlook our bypass those that are in real pain. I understand that. SO, it is comforting to know that God is fully aware. He doesn’t need to be updated or filled in. He knows! He knows!!
Please continue to pray for me. I do not know why God is allowing me to go through such difficult times. I trust that something good will come from all this. I trust that God has the power to bring me out. Please God help me through this.
