When Life Hurts to Much

When the darkness overtakes you and you can’t see anyway out…no peace, only darkness…

Remember Jesus is the light and will lead you through the darkness…

Sometimes life gives us challenges that put us between a rock and a hard place…

Sometimes there is no “right answer” no matter what you decided it will not be a good turnout.

Someone is going to suffer maybe even die but you must make a difficult choice…

At that time all you can do is trust…

And, if you don’t know who to trust…the pain will be unbearable, and the cost too great to bear.

But I am telling you now, there is someone you can trust…there is someone who has suffered more than anything we can imagine or have ever gone through…

There is someone who says…My grace is enough for everything you face in life.

There is someone who says…I will carry you, when you can’t walk or even speak because the pain you are in crushes you and paralyzes you and you are left numb and empty with a big hole in your heart, mind and soul.

He says to throw all your cares on Him because He cares for you. And do not let your heart be troubled. Take my yoke, my bonds, upon you, for my bonds are carefree, easy and light…you don’t have to carry the burden; He will carry them for you. He already took them long ago. You just have to give them to Him.

His name is Jesus…He is the Son of God…He died for you and He rose from the dead and He lives and prays for you every moment of every day.

Lay your weary head upon His chest…let Him caress you and hold you in your deepest pain…He will, if you let Him…

If you have children, you know when they are sad and when they fall down and scrape their knees and they come running to you for comfort? You pick them up and hold them in your lap and tell them everything will be alright…and they are soothed and become quiet and rested. Your loving heavenly father does the same for you. There is solace in His words of grace and mercy. Like an ointment it heals the wounds of life.

Run to papa, let Him hold you and kiss you and tell you everything will, be, alright.

In time the pain will lessen the wounds will heal, there will always be scars but those will remind you that pain is real but there is someone who understands and will love you no matter what…No, Matter, What!

You are loved.

And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. Mark 4:39 King James Version
