My thoughts today:

“So, now that I am weak, Lord lead the way.”

I’m sitting here wondering what are the words that I will type to restart my commitment for continuing this blog.  I am currently following a group of believers who are praying for a record-breaking year this year.  I want to claim that I will break a record on this blog by posting 56 new posts in 2024.  This means that starting this month I have to post 5 to 6 posts per month.  I want to.  I have made promises to myself like this before.  How do I reach this goal?

The unique thing about this 2024 is that I am weak.  I feel like I don’t have the energy to move forward in my life.  This means I will have to push forward by faith.  I have to believe and believe my belief that the Lord is stronger in my weakness.

 

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 about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

2 Corinthians 12:9

 

We know that life is hard and that life will present you with trials, tests, and lessons to learn.  As believers in our Savior Jesus Christ, we trust that he will bring us through every lesson of life in victory.  Something good should come out of pain.

 

But we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;  perseverance, character; and character, hope. 

Romans 5:3-4

 

I am not going to lie about the way that I am feeling.  The Lord knows that I feel confused, tired, and twisted up inside.  I have made my case to the Lord.  He told me to write about it.  So, I will.  I am going to share with you why I feel the way I do in my physical body.  I had to have surgery that cut open my body and snatched the very part of me that I believed made me a woman.  The very organ that carried the three most important things in my life.  I had to make the decision to have a hysterectomy if I wanted to live.  Today, 3 ½ weeks post-operation, I am still trying to wrap my mental space around my emptiness.  What is going on Lord?

 This year I am learning the lesson of healing.  I asked the Lord to heal me from this feeling of being exhausted all of the time.  I prayed and I fasted.  My eyes and heart are open to the answer.  I continue to seek after the Kingdom of Righteousness for the answer.  Healing can be immediate, and healing can be a process.  Sometimes, in order to get to the deeper healing, the Lord has to get deeper into the heart.  Therefore, he has to cut deeper.  I know that when the Lord goes spiritually deep, we must take the time to rest so that the deep part of us can heal.

I invite you to go on this deep healing journey with me this year.  I want to write about my hysterectomy story.  I want to write about healing.  I pray that it will help us understand suffereing and pain better by and by.

 

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God.  Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.  And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

Romans 5:1-5

I continue to promote and encourage people to seek after the Lord for encouragement, hope, motivation, and food for your soul.  He said that if you really do thirst or if we are too heavy with the burdens of this world, then we can turn to him.  Let us turn to him so that he can restore our souls.
