huge even in the small circle
that I am a part of. I am already
spent and tired. I have no
avenue through which to reach
out directly and touch the lives
that are hurting. I feel the
burden but do not see the way
of helping to bring Your love
and hope. I only know that the
needs are there. I can barely
pray, and I feel paralyzed.
compassion, for the hurts that you see around you. I know your own pain,
and I long to bring peace and healing to you just as much as you long to
bring it to others. I know your concern for the lost around you, and I know
how much you long to make an impact in their lives.
Your grief is not something that you need to get past and move on from.
It is precious to Me as you give it into My hand as a means of freedom even
for your own soul. I will free you from being entangled in things that are not
important. I will free you from insecurity and a sense of insignificance. I will
free you from fear and timidity. I will free you from pride and arrogance. Let
Me have full access to your heart and life in this process, and I will do a
wonderful healing and restoring work. It will take time; do not be impatient.
The changes in your heart will bear fruit beyond your own life. I will be
faithful to bring opportunities to you that are meant for you to share the gift
you've received. You may not be seeing them now, but they will come
because I have planned them. I am listening to your every sigh, and I am
hearing even the prayers that have no words right now, and come only as
tears. I hear your heart. I share your grief and pain. I hold you tight and will
not let go. I will turn sorrow to joy and complete My good purposes in your
life. I do love you, and I have good plans for you.
Talk to Me every day and know that I am walking through this process
with you. You are never alone. Bring your heart to Me, and I will bring
healing. Joy will return along with a heart that is tender and full of My mercy.
I can do anything with a heart that is given to Me.
