I really need to vent, to talk to someone, to be held, to be told its going to be ok, and then to stand and be strong and walk away. I don't know if livejournal is even a good thing anymore. I just sit here and my thoughts get all discombobulated, and misinterpreted. I need my best friend. I don't have one anymore. Its really sad to wake up ( Read more... )

Be still and know that I am God..... anonymous June 19 2005, 23:55:51 UTC

Clair, you know, sweetie, have you ever considered that God is just wanting you to become quiet in your spirit? Have you ever considered that He is longing to do a new work in your life and it can't be accomplished if you keep looking to the past and holding on to the past? I think you really want to move forward, but your fears and insecurities are keeping you tied to the past. None of your friends are going to help you walk this journey. That is why it seems that perhaps all of the props in your life are being stripped away. God just wants you all to Himself and HE wants to be your all in all. You just need to surrender all of this stuff in your life to Him and embrace the future He has for you...whatever that may mean. Transition is always hard. Ask any woman who has given birth. It is painful, but it must happen before the birth (of a new thing, a new future, a new hope, a new start) can be realized. It is during that crucial time that we want to reach back and grab what seems comfortable to us and we risk aborting what ( ... )

You are exactly right. I do want to surrender it all. That is exactly what I want to do right now! I want to become the new person God is calling me to, but like you said, its so hard. Especially when the old ways are so familiar and comfortable. I know my friends love me. I also know my family loves me. Its just hard to pick the high road. That's where I am right now. That middle point where I have to let go, every day until it becomes habit to let go. I wake up every morning and pray please Lord, make me more your servant today so that others may see you and your love in and through me. In reguards to Joseph my constant prayer is that God makes me more a best friend and less of an ex. Things are still so awkward between us sometimes and it is just because we are both so afraid of the other being our ex, or should I say he is afraid of me being his ex. I usually don't even know when I'm being an ex rather than a friend. I suppose that would be my homeschooling talking. If you know where I can get that book, please help ( ... )

A quote anonymous June 20 2005, 19:49:30 UTC

"God does not ask you to give the perfect surrender in your strength, or by the power of your will; God is willing to work it in you. Do we not read: "It is God that worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure" (Phil. 2:13)? And that is what we should seek-to go on our faces before God, until our hearts learn to believe that the everlasting God himself will come in *to turn out what is wrong ( ... )
