"Then said I, Lord, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,

I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart." Psalm 40,7-8

For anyone who is asking for an eternal hope…

📖

Learning how to pray is one of the best things EVER! Yeshua in His Word taught us how to pray using this model. This is called, “The Lord’s Prayer.”

I personally would pray this everyday as I woke up or remembered, especially when first being saved.

**Not sponsored or anything but having your kids color and learn on shabbat things like this would be soo great!!

The cords of death entangled me

The anguish of the grave came over me;

I was overcome by distress and sorrow.

Then I called on the name of the Lord: “Lord, save me!”

~Psalm 116:3,4

I’ve wanted to write this post for a while, but I’m sick and I have to be in the writing “mood”. I’m ready now, so this is my attempt at being broken and honest.

Bedridden for months and sicker than I’ve ever been in my life, it’s been dark and horrible. And I’ve been angry, hurt, and oh SO questioning.

Fighting to survive… just survive. Another second, another minute. Metaphorically banging on the door of heaven without feeling like I’ve been answered. Without relief. Crying and raging.

And finding again, that Jesus takes that. He can handle ALL of you. The dark, angry, messy bits you hate. He loves you. Stop trying to hide them…He already knows.

Sometimes on my bad, bad days (#ChronicIllness) I just existed and tried to survive. Days into the surviving…somehow, some way, I would croak out song truths. (#singthetruthintothedark)

I didn’t always “feel” like I believed them, but I sang my way through physical struggle and by faith, trusted Jesus and His promises.

Jesus was more “quiet” than I would have liked, as I waited to feel “that peace”. That Godly, “going through a trial peace” that I expected to just appear. Some people get that immediate peace.

But I think probably there are many people who are like me. Just hanging on and wrestling with huge life questions. I didn’t always feel God, but I felt a lot of things that were taking me down….

And, at the bottom, I realized I have nothing without Jesus.

I’d rather stay with Jesus and take my anger, hurt and questions to Him; than let go of Jesus and be this sick, struggling and flawed without Him. I have somewhere… Someone…. to take the pain and everything that comes with being human. Life may not always go how I want for me (or the ones I love), but I have Jesus.
