It Never Rains, But it Pours

Some times life is so hard. It seems for a little while as if you are making progress in your walk and then "BAMM" out of no where the awful things of life just seem to slam their way in. You get so swamped by everything coming at you at once. You struggle to swim but the waves get so high and you end up failing miserably. That's where I'm at now.

I know that the Lord doesn't expect perfection. If we could achieve perfection we would have no need for a Savior. All He expects is faith. Still I hate it when I fail. I have this image in my head of reaching heaven and the Lord just sighing and shaking His head as He motions for me to come in. I want Him to smile when He sees me. It hurts to think I let Him down.

My dear friend, so sorry that you are hurting. Whatever it may be, God is with you. He loves you so much, and so do I. You are in my prayers.

But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Hang in there...
