I don’t know who that someone is, but I feel like God wants me to write this post. Someone out there needs to hear it. I pray that it reaches the person, so if it’s not you, be sure to forward this to your friends, put it on Facebook, or show your family.
Someone needs it like air and you may not even know they do. Most of the time, when we are deeply hurt, we retreat inside of ourselves; we don’t show anyone we are hurting.
This year I’ve had so many different obstacles. I was homeless and am currently living in temporary living arrangements.
This is just ONE of the frustrations I’ve had and I gotta be honest, I’ve thought about throwing in the towel many times along the way. I should just quit. I should give up. It’s too hard; I can’t do it.
Do you feel like that? Do you feel like giving up and quitting?
Here’s the thing…we can’t. The world needs me. They need my voice. My unique, crazy, vulnerable voice. And you know what, the world needs you too.
You can’t give up. Not because you’d be letting someone down, not because you can’t do this, not because you can’t make it, but because you’re not done yet.
Your work on Earth isn’t done yet. If it was, you’d be dead. And you’re not, seeings how you’re reading this. 😊
The world needs you…crazy, vulnerable you. They need your fire, your charm, your uniqueness. It doesn’t matter if you say the same things as others. It doesn’t matter if you do the same things as others. None of that matters, because YOU will still shine through, your own unique personality.
I’m a blogger. That’s who I am. That’s what I was put on this Earth to do and that’s one way I’m able to serve others in Christ’s name. And one day, the world will know my name and see God in me. One day, God will give me the voice to reach mountains and use me as His mouthpiece to a nation.
One day.
But not today.
Today, I struggle.
Today, you see me wanting to give up. And I think that’s a good thing because I know there’s at least ONE person out there who is tired.
Who wants to give up.
Who just wants a break, relief from the pressure.
Who feels like it’s all just too much to bear.
To that one person out there that’s feeling like me lately, you’re not alone…and you CAN’T give up! You’re not done. God’s not done in you.
While I can’t promise everything will be all better in the morning, I can promise you that you have an amazing God who loves you, who died for you, who’s there with you, every step of the way. Both in the times that we succeed, and in the quiet times, when we tell Him we can’t possibly do this.
I can’t do this. I can’t overcome all these challenges and obstacles.
I can’t, but God can!
Sometimes, it takes us just being a little more patient and waiting. He’s telling me to wait for Him. To let go and stop trying to control every aspect. To LET HIM HELP…what is He telling you?
Whoever you are, wherever you live, I cannot WAIT to see you in Heaven! But until then, let’s BOTH commit to waiting on Him. To letting Him work in the situation. To fully relying on Him and not trying to do it ourselves. To just do our absolute best every single day and leave the results up to Him. Will you give it a little more time? He’s working on it. We just can’t see it yet.
Sending you all lots of love and praying for you, every moment I have breath inside my body. ❤️
