more than this life, there is Love

"I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it, I see everything else" - C.S. Lewis

Holding people away from you, and denying yourself love, that doesn’t make you strong. if anything, it makes you weaker. Because you’re doing it out of fear.

I wish my struggles were normal. Things I can talk about with people and they give me concrete advice that I could actually listen to and maybe even follow. You know, boy problems, career problems, basic girl problems, basic human problems but I was never made to be ordinary. Even my struggles aren’t ordinary. My skin is just horrible right now. I need to cover myself up from neck to toe, including my hands. If I could, I’d cover my scalp and face too. And as much as I want to look at the brighter side and hope for a better day, it’s so difficult to do. I want to be healed so badly but this struggle has been ongoing for years and every time it comes back, it hits me 10x harder and fall back into the hole I feel like I’m always in. I want to look past my skin condition, but I find myself wanting to stay home all the time, not wanting to see anyone. And get this--I never want to wear makeup or do my hair because what’s the point? My dreams and my goals are limited because I don’t want to hope for something that may never come true. I understand and I’m aware that God has greater plans for me. God loves me. I am His beloved. But when I look in the mirror, it’s hard to see God. It’s hard to see beauty. It’s hard to see my worth as a woman, as a person. The easiest thing to do right now is allowing this loneliness in my struggle to consume me. Because what else could I do? It’s so easy for people to say YOLO. So easy for people to decide to date, to get themselves out there and live the only life they’ll ever get to have. But how is that applicable to me? I’m living but I feel so lifeless.

Pray for me, please.

[saintquotes]

My past no longer concerns me. It belongs to Divine mercy. My future does not yet concern me. It belongs to Divine providence. What concerns me and what challenges me is today, which belongs to God’s grace and to the devotion of my heart and my good will.

St. Francis de Sales (via saintquotes)

I feel like I’m living in this constant state of too much and not enough, Like the days are passing by too fast and too slow, And I’m always either overwhelmed or empty.

There is no fear. Absolutely no fear. When one lives without fear, one cannot be broken. When one lives with fear one is broken before one begins to live.
