Suffering

 Suffering can be hard. There are times when people suffer physically, there are times when people suffer in mental health and emotional health, but then there are times when people are suffering because they're grieving and they feel like how can God turn my sadness into gladness? They feel like, how can God turn this type of suffering I go through in life, into something good? They often wonder is there a place for me?

Romans 5 verse 3-5, John 16 verse 33, Romans 8 verse 18, 1 Peter 5 verse 10, James 1 verse 2-4, Revelation 21 verse 4, Romans 8 verse 28, 2 Corinthians 1 verse 3-4, Galatians 6 verse 2, Romans 8 verse 35, 2 Corinthians 1 verse 5, 1 Peter 2 verse 21, 1 Corinthians 13 verse 3, Deuteronomy 8 verse 3, Matthew 10 verse 39, 1 Peter 4 verse 13, 2 Corinthians 4 verse 16-18, Acts 14 verse 22, 2 Timothy 1 verse 8, Jeremiah 29 verse 11, 1 Peter 5 verse 7, Psalm 119 verse 50, 1 Peter 4 verse 19, 2 Timothy 2 verse 3.

Many of times we wonder how can we leave the things that we need to let be left alone in past times and be in the now of what is in front of us which is God who is Love and God who carries our burdens and lifts our burdens so that we don't have to worry about what the Enemy tries to define us because we know that we are a Beloved Creation in Christ and we know that God takes and restores what is broken within.

No matter what trials we go through, we know that God who is our Hope and Strength, can mend a heart. We know that He is Faithful and True and we know that we don't ever have to worry over what happens.

In any circumstance we know that God will pull us through a storm and into the Light in which He is.

We realize that sometimes we hold out for Hope in thinking what have we done to deserve suffering?

Well you see we for one might have gone through suffering in different points of our lives and we still might, but we also have to remember that God's Son Jesus went through suffering. We as children of God need to sometimes remind ourselves that when we think our suffering or someone's suffering is bad, to think of how bad God's Son died on a cross and was nailed to a cross, just so we could have everlasting or eternal life so that our sins could be forgiven. God's Son later rose again and He will return but until He returns, we can choose to stay in suffering, we can choose to not ask how we could be a light to help someone in their time of need, or we can take our suffering and use it to share our testimony with somebody who might be needing to hear these words of they are never alone and that Christ has a purpose which is a plan for their life because it's how we deal with that word suffering, that can instantly change from a bad day to a better day ahead in what Christ has in store for our lives and those living in this world that may not know who Christ is but how God uses us to help others know.

 Everyday is a brand new day, Everyday is a brand new day in the eyes of God.  And everyday is just another struggle, and everyday is just another struggle that the enemy will not win. 

And everyday I do not give up, and every day I do not give up, because God is fighting my battle and I will keep fighting the good fight of Faith, and I will do it with a smile on my face because Everyday is a brand new day, and everyday is a brand new day in the eyes of God. I will follow my heart, I will listen to my Savior because everyday is a brand new day, and everyday is a day to rejoice in the eyes of God.  I surrender it all to Him, I don't quit on my Faith, and I persevere in this good fight of Faith because I know who fights my battles and helps me through my struggles because everyday is a brand new day, and every day is a day to rejoice in the Image of God. I will keep on fighting, I will never ever give up because I am a warrior in Christ who can do all things in He who gives me strength to keep fighting the good fight of Faith.

 I sit here, I reflect, On what being a Warrior In Faith has meant, Taking the time to realize, that Jesus is my Joy and Prize, I don't have to be afraid, in knowing where I'll be someday, Until I'm there, I'll keep being that light to everyone everywhere, So hold onto hope, hold onto the promises of God, Cause you never know how strong, you have to be in order to see That this world isn't your home, but Heaven is your Heavenly Home.

I wanted to share some different lyrics from two songs I wrote one being called Never Going To Give Up In God's Eyes and the other being called Warriors In Faith because I feel like they went along with what we were learning about because as A Warrior in Christ and a Warrior In Faith we will never give up in His Eyes cause just like a song by a friend I know by Glendil Griffin his song called Through Suffering Says This: It is through suffering I find the strength I need, and don't we all need to remember that part of that lyric in that song when we go through something He is our Strength?

I hope and pray that as we head into the week and weekend that we lean on Him and His Understanding and we lean on Him in Prayer, and lean on Him for Guidance, Endurance and Love.

Most importantly as well, I hope we will lean on Him for Strength to not only help us but with others.
