Came across this from October 28, 2018.
As I recall me and my handsome hero walking through a 🔥 then that God is showing me now.
We are “Forged”🔥for this. (As I study this word Gods has in my heart… It suggests that the person or thing has been shaped, tested, and refined through adversity, just as metal is strengthened through the process of being heated, hammered, and forged in fire. In short, “forged in fire” implies the development of strength and character through trials and hardships.)
He prepares.
He sustains.
He doesn’t abandon us.
He equips.
He encourages.
He edifies.
He gives barley and manna.
Even in the “truthfully real”
I’m not sure what your going though or what “real” God wants to see in you but He can handle anything and everything about you.
The tears.
The silent screams.
The loud screams.
The shame.
The doubt.
The disappointment.
The unworthiness.
The grief.
The sorrow.
The pain.
The addiction.
He can handle it all.
And one thing that stood out to me in this.
“Breathing for me.”
Lately I’ve been struggling to catch that breath.
That full fill up your lungs breathe that gives you the courage to breathe again deeply.
This reminds me.
It’s His breath in our lungs.
Here and there. He is our breath.
Press on friend.
He has so much in store for you.
Dont give up.
Your very next breath just may be the one you catch and HE gives you the courage to keep breathing.
