It is feeling sick, physically and mentally til you can't function any longer.
Infidelity is less painful. |
I don't believe that it is ok in God's eyes. I believe that this pain racked world needed a Saviour and that is why Christ came. We all have things we struggle with but in the end there is always one answer ot our problems. We are to loose our old life and find ourself in Christ. This is the opposite of what our flesh wants to do and if we focus on our problems they become insurmountable in our eyes. As we focus still on them we can sink into deep depression.
Christ died to deliver us- we need to let go and die to ourselves to find the fulness of that. Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom. The joy of the Lord is our strength.
Sooner or later we all come to the place in life where we must decide to either have faith in our circumstance or faith in our God. Being brought low is often the first step to being lifted up as this is often the only place- that place of utter helplessness- were we are fully willing to surrender and learn to walk in His strength.
Never give up or loose faith- God is able, God is willing, God is working:
