It is always darkest before the dawn as you have heard, but what you may not realize is the Devil zings each of us the hardest right before our greatest successes... so hang in there!

I'm glad...I've never read your blog before. I'm glad I came across it! Your struggles are so similar to where I used to be when I was younger.<br /><br />You wrote of feeling as if you might be going under for the third time. This reminds me of a verse God gave me a long time ago, which I found so encouraging:<br /><br />"Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are Mine!<br /><br />When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you." (Isaiah 43: 1,2)<br /><br />What struck me with these verses is that it says WHEN you pass through the waters . . not IF. I think that's a very important distinction. It's as if God's saying, "Don't worry, it's par for the course to feel at times as if you're drowning. You're experiencing what every human goes through in this world of trouble, but I knew all about this ahead of time, and I've made a way out of no way to bring you out of it."<br /><br />I pray you will see God's heart revealed to you in such a way that you will know, without doubt, that He truly has called you by name. (And isn't it true that we always name what we most value? Dolls, stuffed animals, pets, loved ones?)Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16685405163963691258noreply@blogger.com
