Have you ever felt...

Have you ever felt...

-like there are no more tears to cry, but yet they continue to flow
-like you have no more strength, yet you manage to keep going
-like there is no more hope, but you continue to make it
-like you just want to die, yet you live to see another day
-like it's hard to even take another breath, but you continue to breathe
-like you can't handle one more thing, yet you carry on regardless
-like the storm is too big, yet there is a rainbow on the other side
-like you are all alone, but He never leaves you
-like your world is falling apart, but He picks up the pieces
-like your heart is broken, but He can mend it
-like you don't deserve to live, yet His mercy sustains you
-like you are in a pit too deep to get out of, but there is a ladder to help you out--you just can't see it
-like the sun will never shine, but the clouds roll away and a beam shines down
-like you will never feel like yourself again, yet your support is there to help
-like you are worthless, but you are worth more in His eyes than you will ever know
-like you are useless, yet your journey will help others
-like this will never end, but it WILL
-like there is so much guilt, yet there is no condemnation in Him

We may not understand the reason, but God will use this trial and these tribulations to grow you in Him and to help others.  You have to help yourself first and allow God to heal you.  It is easy to get comfortable in your sadness and just settle--but He has more for you.  He wants you to prosper.  He wants to fill you with His joy that cannot be taken away.  He wants you to cry out to Him and allow Him to carry your burdens.
Do not allow this to overtake you because you can make it and you will make it.  You will come out stronger, wiser, and more rooted in Him.
