My feelings toward to God

[Godispowerful]

I truly appreciated sharing my feelings and the daily challenges I face, since my current situation is difficult. I have no money because my budget is extremely tight; at this moment, I hold $###.##. This is why I dislike seeing my life become so hard for all the reasons I have endured. I am unhappy with how things are progressing, and it grows difficult. For this reason, I decline to seek help from others; I am speaking only to you and God, because you understand how to respond to my present life.

We are grateful you shared your honest feelings toward God and the daily challenges you are facing, and we hear how heavy this season feels for you with such a tight budget and so little to hold onto right now. We understand your unhappiness with how hard life has become and how difficult it is to keep going when the reasons for the hardship have endured for so long. God sees your heart and He is not distant from your pain, for His word says, Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Psalm 34:18 and also casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7. You are not forgotten, and your feelings matter to Him.

We want to gently encourage you about declining to seek help from others. While we understand the desire for privacy and to speak only to God, the Lord has designed us to live in community and to bear one another's burdens. Scripture says Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. Galatians 6:2. Seeking wise counsel, prayer support, and even practical help from fellow believers is not a sign of weakness but of humility and trust that God often provides through His people. We encourage you not to isolate yourself, but to allow trustworthy brothers and sisters in Christ to walk alongside you.

We also noticed you spoke of God but did not mention Jesus Christ, and we want to lovingly share that it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father. Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. John 14:6 and There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12. God invites us to come to Him, but that invitation is opened through faith in Jesus, who died for our sins and rose again so we could be forgiven and reconciled to God. If you have not yet put your trust in Him, we encourage you to confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, for that is how we are saved and how our prayers are heard.

For your financial hardship, we are reminded of God's promise to provide. My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19 and Therefore don't be anxious, saying, What will we eat, What will we drink or, With what will we be clothed For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:31-33. This does not mean hardship will instantly disappear, but it means your Father knows your needs and is faithful to sustain you as you seek Him first, work diligently as you are able, and steward what you have with wisdom.

We now pray together for you.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ we lift up this dear one to You. You know the weight of the tight budget, the discouragement, and the weariness of enduring so much for so long. We ask You to draw near and bring comfort to a troubled heart, to provide for every need according to Your riches in glory, and to open doors for provision and work that honors You. Give wisdom to steward the little that is in hand, peace that surpasses understanding, and hope that You are working even in this hard season for good. Lead this one to trust fully in Jesus as Savior and Lord, and to know the assurance of coming to You through His name alone. Help there to be courage to not walk alone but to receive help and encouragement from Your people. We ask for Your will to be done and for Your presence to be felt daily. In Jesus name we pray, amen.

We encourage you to continue pouring out your heart to God through Jesus each day, to bring your needs to Him in prayer, and to remain in His word where He speaks comfort and guidance. We are standing with you in prayer and trusting God to show His faithful care in your present life.

Thank you for trusting us with what is on your heart. We hear how heavy this season feels, and how discouraging it is to watch your budget stretch so thin while you are trying so hard to keep going. It makes sense that you would feel unhappy and worn down when every day brings the same pressure.

We are grateful you reached out to us and to the Lord. You do not have to carry these feelings alone, and God is not distant from your worry about provision and the future. He sees both your practical needs and the discouragement underneath them.

We respect that you want to keep this private right now and not seek help more widely. We will honor that and keep praying with you here. One small step that sometimes brings a little clarity when money is very tight is to write down for a week simply what comes in and what must go out. Just seeing it on paper can make it easier to notice where there might be a little breathing room, and it can also give you something concrete to bring before the Lord as you ask for wisdom.

You matter to God and you matter to us, and we will keep holding your situation before Him.

Father, we lift our friend to You in Jesus' name. You know the exact need and the weight they are carrying. Give them Your peace, clear wisdom for each decision ahead, and daily provision as You see best. Remind them they are heard and not alone, and guide their steps with Your kindness. Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your honest words have been heard with care and with prayer, and I thank you for pouring out your heart so plainly before the Lord. To feel the pinch of want, to look upon a small sum and wonder how it shall meet the days ahead, is a heavy trial, and it is right that you have brought it to God, for He is the hearer of the needy and the helper of those who have no other help.

You speak of a tight budget and a difficult season, and of an unhappiness with the way things progress. It is no strange thing that your spirit should be cast down under such pressure. There are seasons, even with God's true children, when at His feet they groan, yet seem to take their needs away unanswered for a time. But understand that God's delays are not denials, and that His denials to particular requests are only intended to let us know that He will give us something richer and better than we have asked. If He does not pay your prayers in silver, He will pay them in gold.

Let not your feelings fly in the teeth of God's promises, but hope on. Though your case is very sad, it is not a strange one, there is hope for you. Your main business is not first with answers about provision, but with your answer to God's call to you, and His call to you, poor and burdened soul, is, Come unto Me, and I will give you rest. It would be cheap faith to take Christ as the saints' Savior, but it is the faith of God's elect to take Him as the sinner's Savior. If you can say, I got mercy straight from the throne of God by trusting in the blood of Jesus Christ, then you will know that you received it from headquarters, and there can be no mistake about it.

Do not be afraid that your faith is too small or unworthy. Many thousands of God's saints are quite unnecessarily troubled with this. Remember that where God begins to work, He does not ask us to finish. He always completes His own work. He who has taught you to trust in His name thus far will not put you to shame. The Christian has God's promise for it, for he believes that Bible to be God's Book, and therefore when he finds God saying anything in that Book to him, he believes it to be true. God has promised His people that if they trust Him they shall lack no good thing.

You say you decline to seek help from others and speak only to God and to this place. I understand the desire for quietness when the heart is sore, yet I would gently encourage you not to walk this path alone. The Lord has placed His people as a family to bear one another's burdens, and to seek wise and godly counsel in the church is not a sign of weakness but of trust in His provision through His body. To leave your affairs in God's hands does not mean to be an idler, but to go and work faithfully in His vineyard as long as it is called today, driving out all unbelief and doing what your hands find to do with diligence and honesty.

May the Lord show you His mercy in Christ Jesus, who though He was rich, yet for our sakes became poor, that we through His poverty might be rich toward God. Look to Him first for the forgiveness of sins and the peace of conscience, for if your soul is right with God through faith in His dear Son, you shall find strength to trust Him for daily bread as well.

I pray for you now, that God who sees your need and knows your frame would grant you peace in believing, wisdom for each decision, strength for honest labor, and a steady trust that He will provide what is needful in His time and way. May He keep your heart from fear and establish you in the knowledge that you are cared for by a faithful Father who will not forget to be gracious.

Cast your burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain you, and continue to seek Him daily in prayer and in His Word.
