EVEN DURING THE DARK TIMES

This past year has definitely been a challenge both emotionally and spiritually. Those of you who are close to me know of which situation in particular I am referring to. During this time I faced many emotions including anger, resentment, sorrow, loss, anxiety, betrayal, doubt, and fear to name a few. At first I was unsure of how to handle things. I questioned Gods love for me, and his desire to protect me. I felt very alone. However, I quickly recovered from these debilitating emotions, and saw a faint hope in the distance. As I worked through these emotions, claiming their presence in my heart, talking to the Lord, and seeking counsel from others, God began to heal my heart and my circumstances. God has been so good to me. I went through a period of paranoia, where I felt like the bottom of my life was going to drop out all together.. I saw only darkness. Thanks be to God that he lifted me out of that pit of despair and once again showered his love upon me, drawing me back to himself, and taking that crappy situation and bringing much good out of it. My faith has been strengthened in that I have seen God work in my life in many past situations and I now have confidence that he will bring me through future trials. I am by no means claiming complete victory over this situation as of yet. I am, however, claiming full victory over this trial over time, after much needed healing.I am claiming victory over the future trials I will face down the road. For I know i will not be facing them alone!
~ A big thanks to those of you who have walked with me through this troublesome time in my life.

Nusha! You made me smile. Not because of the struggles that you write of, but because of your spirit. You see God doing good things in this tough life. Many people have a hard time doing that. In reading your blog it makes me think of Romans 8:31 "If God is for me, who then can be against me?"
