Status of My day today

[New Linda]

Today was so beautiful I went to the park to eat and saw the cloud coming together as a cross, like criss cross as a cross God never leaves our side. It was so nice to eat like a picnic while watching the clouds of cross and planes in the sky. I got sad and cried while laying under the tree laying in green pastures the grass. For something very upsetting upsetted me and I was sad like when Jesus was in the garden of Gethsemane he was very sad before he was arrested, betrayed, on trial, crucified, died, buried, rose again, now seated at the right hand of the Father and he will come again as the Lion of Judah for he already came as the Lamb of God. For when he was in the garden of Gethsemane he said, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will." As I was laying there in the park under the tree I said the same thing for I am still in deep anguish. Before it got dark I saw a boy climbing the tree that I was laying under then he said, "mommy look" and then he climbed down and I gave thumbs up saying good as he climbed down. I tried to finish eating and was sad in between. It got dark and cold and I saw the moon and more planes. I remember 2 verses I kept in my heart and it helped me:

1) "I will give repeated thanks unto the Lord and praise him among everyone for he stands beside the needy ever ready to save them from those who condemn them" and I couldn't finish saying it without crying and I laid there in tears watering the grass with my tears. After, I drank some juice in a juice box made me feel better a bit and then I recited Psalms 23 and somehow God gave me assurance and peace and I was ready to get back up then went down from the hill arms like an airplane to go down the hill zoom lol and hugged a small tree then I went along singing from the last prayer we prayed here:

"I'm not forsaken, Never alone, My God in heaven he calls me his own, He sits upon the throne, He is right here inside my home, I got a treasure inside my heart, And he is with me he won't depart, I got a saviour who will abide, He is with me inside my home, Go ask those Hebrew boys that he'll stick by your side, He's the fourth man, He the fourth man in the fire, Oh oh oh oh oh oh, He is in the room, He is in the room."

Then I went to smell the flowers and someone smiled at me while I was smelling the flowers. That was lovely. Then I went home. Ohhh my eyes still hurt me tho. I am in tremendous pain in my eyes and anguish in my heart and there are things that I am dreading but still have to surrender to God and let his will be done, not mine. Amen.

2 Quotes on my phone today said: "Nothing is ever as it seems. What looks bad today can be a blessing tomorrow." - Iyanla Vanzant "God sees every kind deed you do in secret." Both from Bible Widgets app. Thank you for this wonderful day and thank you for helping me to persevere today and help me sustain me today. Thank you Jesus. Amen.

What a powerful testimony of God’s presence in your day, even in the midst of sorrow and pain. You witnessed His handiwork in the clouds forming a cross—a divine reminder that He is near, that He sees you, and that the sacrifice of Jesus covers every ache of your heart. Just as the Lord spoke to Elijah not in the wind or the earthquake but in a still small voice (1 Kings 19:11-12), He spoke to you today through creation, through the innocence of a child climbing a tree, through the kindness of a stranger’s smile, and through the comfort of His Word tucked deep within your heart. You are not forgotten, beloved. The God who numbers the hairs on your head (Matthew 10:30) and collects your tears in His bottle (Psalm 56:8) was with you as you wept beneath that tree, just as He was with Jesus in Gethsemane.

Your heart echoes the prayer of Christ in the garden: *"My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will"* (Matthew 26:39, WEB). This is the posture of true surrender—acknowledging the pain while trusting the Father’s sovereignty. Jesus understood the weight of suffering, yet He chose obedience, and through His agony, He purchased our peace. You, too, are being refined in this season of anguish. The pain in your eyes and the heaviness in your heart are not unseen by Him. He is working something eternal in you, even when the purpose is not yet clear. Remember what you read: *"Nothing is ever as it seems. What looks bad today can be a blessing tomorrow."* Cling to this truth. The same God who turned a cross—a symbol of shame and death—into the greatest victory the world has ever known is at work in your story.

We rejoice with you that the Lord met you in the park today. He led you to Psalm 23, where David declares, *"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me"* (Psalm 23:4, WEB). That comfort is real, even when the tears keep falling. And how beautiful that you sang of His presence—*"I’m not forsaken, never alone"*—as you descended the hill with arms outstretched like an airplane. That is the freedom of a child of God, even in sorrow! You are held by the One who parts the seas, who shuts the mouths of lions, and who walks with us in the fire (Daniel 3:25). He is indeed the fourth Man in your flames, and He will not let you be consumed.

Yet we must also address the deep anguish you carry. The Bible tells us to *"cast all your worries on him, because he cares for you"* (1 Peter 5:7, WEB). Beloved, you do not have to bear this alone. If there are sins or burdens you haven’t surrendered, or if there are fears you’ve been shouldering in silence, lay them at His feet. Confess them, release them, and let Him lift them. If there are people or situations causing you harm, pray for wisdom on how to set godly boundaries or seek reconciliation where possible. And if the pain in your eyes or the dread in your heart is tied to unaddressed physical or emotional needs, we urge you to seek help—whether through medical care, counsel from mature believers, or the support of your church family. God often uses His people to minister healing, just as He used the boy’s voice to pull you briefly from your sorrow today.

Let us pray for you now:

Heavenly Father, we lift up Your precious child to You, the One who sees every tear, who hears every whispered prayer, and who collects every sigh of the brokenhearted. Lord, You were with them in the park today—Your finger painted the cross in the clouds, Your Spirit whispered Psalm 23 to their heart, and Your joy broke through in the laughter of a child and the smile of a stranger. Thank You for meeting them in their Gethsemane moment, for reminding them that even Jesus asked for the cup to pass, yet submitted to Your perfect will.

Father, we ask for supernatural comfort for the pain in their eyes and the anguish in their heart. Heal them, Lord, whether through Your direct touch or through the hands of doctors and believers You place in their path. Remove every spirit of dread and replace it with Your peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7). Give them the grace to surrender fully to You, to trust that what feels unbearable now will one day be a testament to Your faithfulness.

Strengthen them to persevere, just as Jesus endured the cross for the joy set before Him (Hebrews 12:2). Remind them that their suffering is not in vain, that You are refining them like gold, and that You will bring them through this valley into green pastures once more. Surround them with Your presence like a shield, and let them feel Your arms around them when the nights grow cold and lonely.

We rebuke every lie of the enemy that would tell them they are forsaken or that their pain will never end. The truth is, You are with them—*Emmanuel*, God with us. You are in the room, in the fire, in the garden, and in the storm. Fill them with Your joy as they wait on You, and let them sing of Your goodness even in the waiting.

Finally, Lord, we ask that You would reveal to them the blessings hidden in this season. Open their eyes to see Your hand at work, even in the small things—a juice box, a thumbs-up, a flower’s fragrance. Let them know, beyond any doubt, that You are preparing a table for them in the presence of their enemies (Psalm 23:5), and that their story is not over. It is being rewritten by Your hand.

We pray all this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and our Healer. Amen.

Beloved, keep holding onto Him. Keep singing, keep praying, keep looking for His fingerprints in the sky. And remember: the same God who turned a cross into a crown will turn your ashes into beauty (Isaiah 61:3). You are not alone. We are standing with you in prayer, and most importantly, *He* is with you. Always.

Oh, dear friend, we're so glad you found solace in the park today, even amidst the tears. It's amazing how God meets us in the most ordinary places, isn't it? The cross in the clouds, the child's laughter, the stranger's smile - these were all little love notes from heaven, reminding you that you're never alone.

We too were encouraged by your words, "I'm not forsaken, never alone. My God in heaven calls me His own. He sits on the throne, He is right here inside my home. I got a treasure inside my heart, and He's with me. He won't depart, my Savior will abide. He's the fourth Man in the fire, He's the room. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, He's the room." What a beautiful declaration of faith!

We want you to know that we're here for you, just like that boy who gave you a thumbs up. We're cheering you on, and we're praying for you. We pray that God would continue to reveal His presence in your life, that He would comfort you in your pain, and that He would give you the strength to persevere.

Remember, even Jesus felt the weight of His suffering in the garden, yet He chose obedience. He's with you in your Gethsemane moment, and He's working something beautiful in you. Trust in Him, dear one. He's got you, and He's not letting go.

Keep holding on, keep trusting, keep singing. And know that we're right here with you, every step of the way. You are loved, you are seen, and you are never alone.
