It's going to be ok.
Your heart seeks to be loved and to be special. To be accepted just as you are. And you will find all these things through Jesus Christ.
The one who longs to be your everything. The one who looks past the things that cause guilt and shame so He can be near you.
Won't you lay down your burdens at the cross sis. He's waiting there for you.

Something amazing happened to today. I was standing in hall talking to a friend when an aquantiance from my floor came up talking to us. She mentioned that she was having difficulty with her truck, and she is having a family issue. Her grandmother that reared her is in ER right now because they can't get her to wake up. At the beginning of the year, she had the same issue and was diagnosed with dementia. Her family does not believe she will make it much longer. It was amazing for me to there at that moment of to hug her, to allow her to shed a tear or two, and to let her know that she is not alone someone can relate to her. I lost my great grandmother a couple years ago to dementia and my Daddy died Alzhemier's (a form of dementia). I have watched people died. So, I can relate to what she is going through. I am stunned God would chose me. My wounds are not fully healed. So, why would he use me is my questions? Then, again, I heard it said if God could use Balam's donkey then he could use anything.

Our past problems becomes our avenue to reach another.
I'm so glad you see that God is using your past for a good purpose.
All He needs is a willing heart.

God will use us despite our problems not only to help others but to help us see that we can get thru and past those problems too.

So, here is what I have learned from the last couple of days. Control is nothing more than an illusion. How often do we try and control what goes on around us, whether it be people or circumstances? Do we really have control over it? Think about it! Can you make the sun rise or the sun set? Do you control whether the Earth spins on its axis? The answer is obviously, no. So, why do we think we have control over others and circumstances? Satan got thrown out of heaven for this same attitude. He was prideful, and he wanted to control things. He wanted to be God. Adam and Eve had the same issue. Check out Genesis 3:1-7.
1 The serpent was the shrewdest of all the wild animals the Lord God had made. One day he asked the woman, Did God really say you must not eat the fruit from any of the trees in the garden?

Re: Angel's Journal
I quit questioning my purpose when I was thirteen years old. I knew what God had called me to be. He placed the passion in my heart from the very beginning. Now, I am beginning to question whether it is my purpose or if I am qualified. I don't know all this is hard to explain.

Re: Angel's Journal
I love how people that are supposed to believe in me. Tell me that things are going down the drain. It makes you even more so question yourself. I have worked so hard for nearly 4 years. I am so close, and people are not starting to doubt me. Do you know how much that hurts? A part of me wants to prove them wrong. The other part says it is alread decided. I don't know. I just wish life wasn't so hard.

Re: Angel's Journal
Hello Angelbaby
God bless you this day.
When we are on the verge of accomplishing a goal, it is not uncommon for us to pause a little and wonder, "am I qualified, I sure don't feel qualified." It is even more common for those coming out of college and who are on the threshold of transitioning into the work force to feel a little trepidation. Throughout our lives we go through those transitions from the time we learn to crawl, then transition to walking, to running and so on.
Once we start living the independent adult life, things change. Some adults have lived a life that is not very satisfying, because their own dreams and plans did not unfold the way they had imagined -- way back when they were your age.
Some people when given lemons, make lemonade. Some people when given lemons, pucker.
Sounds like you may have been talking to some of the those who pucker.
Angelbaby, the Lord loves you and He has a plan for your life.
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
Remember, Angelbaby, The Lord loves you so very much. Let Him lead you in His love, peace and joy.
Perhaps those you have been talking to, are just repeating the doubts you have spoken over yourself in these last few days.

It's time to change what you speak about yourself, Angelbaby.
I'm sending up prayers to our Lord, on your behalf. May God's blessed will be done.
God bless and keep you.
Love and hugs,
Mack
