After all this time, after all these trials and all the blessings that God has brought into my life, I still have trouble believing that things will be okay. Sometimes life feels like it will slip through my fingers at any given moment. I wish the words of people didn't affect me so much; I wish I could block out the doubt in their voice or lack of respect in their eyes. I know, at first impression, I'm not smart or eloquent in any way. But I hope one day to have enough focus on the only one who does matter to keep walking. I have to believe that this journey has amounted to something, that in some way, I am perhaps meant to be here.

Hi, Tru. This sounds a lot like some bad experiences I had last week. But I am confident that your being where you are is part of our Abba's wonderful purpose for your life. I recently found Psalm 3 encouraging: 'LORD, how many are my foes! How many rise up against me! Many are saying of me, "God will not deliver him." But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, the one who lifts my head high. I call out to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain. I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the LORD sustains me. I will not fear though tens of thousands assail me on every side.' I'm praying for you for confidence and encouragement. Hang in there! Love, Linds : - )

I'm right here with you....and besides, God won't let us down. He's not like that. :)
