Broken = Shaped for His Glory

Broken. But I'm healed. And continuously being healed.

I feel like vomiting a lot of stuff in a blog post, especially about home life and how unbearable it is lately.

[abrokenheartalwaysneedsremending]

so, ummm i have a lot of expenses in the short term (few months-1year) that i can't necessarily assume my parents will gladly cover/take over from me. especially my dad, who is basically the source of income and the one who carries all the bills just writing this for me bc it's hella discouraging trying to figure it out yourself and i'm hoping i take that whole "not worrying about what you'll eat, wear, drink" thing seriously. i would also love to continue noting how i do with things i want to acheive and own with time. and how the fog clears because it stays STUPID thick when you say you're going to be in a creative field and you don't have the conviction or clarity of path yet to prove that it will go somewhere (even if it may not be your idea of successful).

every disheartening word comment message and tone will be accounted for it doesn't take much to find reasons not to believe and not to forgive it takes a lot to follow a faith that people love to abuse and love to despise, and essentially says you don't retaliate, you show grace and forgive you ever meet people who make you feel like nothing and normalize it/make excuses for it? and you go to your room/go to sleep and you're supposed to forgive them/LIVE. with. them?

These simple words are shaking the very ground I walk on. I feel as though I am running wildly through a forest of unknown territory and He whispers a call to be still, and trust that He is in control. I don’t have to figure out every piece of my life, even if my futuristic self would love to. This journey God has called me on, requires me to let go and be still. Trusting in His promises and being okay living in the unknown. // Be still. Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. Psalm 46:10

i don't know how people manage not to turn their houses upside down and do something really serious to/in front of their parents because some of the things they do? and say? I'm surprised they don't see how they contribute to dysfunction in their children. 🤔??

i think about my (oldest) sister every week. if not every day.

[abrokenheartalwaysneedsremending]

man. crying is so therapeutic for me these days ☺️ i either need a therapist so i don't keep burying this stuff or a small group (like, 3) of consistent friends for deep communication

starting to feel like i need an on-call therapist... it's really gross when my unhealthy emotional side suddenly pops up and starts to show.

[abrokenheartalwaysneedsremending]

also.

you're not the first to make mistakes. unlearn that junk

[abrokenheartalwaysneedsremending]

and sometimes (just sometimes) you've got to do the therapy yourself.

[abrokenheartalwaysneedsremending]

your little negative habits, gently shift you away from the life you were meant to live in Christ. you can have all other things in order but if you think those areas are off-limits, you may be deceiving yourself and without knowing it, you are still not in a good position with the Lord.

[abrokenheartalwaysneedsremending]

reserve some things for your self. your self. your sanity. your way of truly living.

it makes me indescribably happy when people experience the peace, joy & happiness that Christ gives.

Stoney hearts won’t heal. This is why you need to give over that heart to God and let Him give you a heart of flesh. (Ezekiel 36:26). What does that look like practically? Be real with God and about the emotions that you try so hard to hide. Allow His word to expose your emotions and bring you back to His standard (Psalm 139:23:24). Open yourself up to receive His perfect love that perfects you! And if you allow yourself to be soaked in God’s love, embrace the healing process, don’t rush it, you will come out so much better.
