Life.

Life can be so unfair sometimes. We have all lived through heartache, heartbreak and dark times. At that moment we think that we will never get over it, never get through it, or never see the light. But we were wrong weren't we. We all got over, got through it and the light did shine again. So I guess my question is, "Do you know how you got over it, got through it, and found that light in the darkness?" Well, I cant answer that for you but I can answer that for me.. I turned it over to the Lord!! I asked the Lord for a lot of things to happen, for it to go this way or that, but in the end, He was my answer. He knew what I needed and when I needed it. He will give us the tools to get through anything. Those tools can be in the form of your Bible, a direct answer from Him, or friends that you find where you lease expect them. Those are gifts from God. Those are the answers to prayers. Those were the answers to my prayers. "In my distress I called to the Lord, and He answered me. I called for help and you listened to my cry." Jonah 2:2 So here is my testimony...

I found myself in a dark place. I was down, out and broken hearted. I needed the light of my Lord to shine on me and bring me out of the darkness. I found this scripture and I prayed and I prayed. This is in 2 Samuel 22:29 "You are my lamp, O Lord; the Lord turns my darkness into light." What a power verse. I know that my broken heart is real and believe me it hurts but with scriptures like that and a Lord that I have complete faith in. I know that He will help me through it. I will never walk alone, as long I continue to walk with Him. "Jesus replied, Surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:20 I still have a broken heart but as for the darkness, His eternal light will forever guide me out. " I have come into this world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness." John 12:46
So remember that NO matter what you are going through the Lord is with you, He is ready to help you get over it, get through it, and lead you out of the darkness. In John 8:12 Jesus spoke to them saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life." The glorious light of the Lord is only a question away. Pray to Him, ask Him to shine His light of Love, His light of Hope and His light of Everlasting Life upon you. We all find ourselves in some kind of darkness at some point or another in our lives. But with the Lord in our hearts, we never have to stay in the dark. I praise and thank Him everyday for shining His light on me in my time of darkness. If you are in the dark open your heart and let Him fill you with His Light!!!!
Love in Christ,
