Did you ever have someone lie to you or about you? Their word was trash and sooner or later everyone figured out not to trust their word.
God is not like that. Did I ever tell you that, when I was living in the midst of incest, God gave me a word. I was 6 years old and suicidal. My mom couldn't stand my depression so she sent me outside to color in a coloring book on the front steps of our house.
I was sitting on the step and crying my heart out. I tried to color but all I wanted to do was die.
I didn't remember what came next until years later.
God saw my broken heart and how powerless I was to change my situation--to be safe! He knew what I was going through but He also saw my future as a wife, mother, and grandmother.
He came close to me and whispered in my ear. "When you grow up, you're going to marry a man named Robert!"
It was what I needed. I needed to know that there was going to be an end to all of the rapes and beatings. All the times my brothers tried to kill me to try to do away with their guilt, I guess. God knew that I would somehow survive my childhood and find love.
Guess what. HE WAS RIGHT!! God knew that I needed to see past my present circumstances to a better life with the man I love. It was just a few words but it made all the difference to my little wounded self!
I have no idea what you are going through in your life right now but God knows. He has a wonderful life planned for you!! You just need to press through the darkness until you see His loving face shining down on you. He is there. Just start talking to Him and then listen to what He says. I am positive that He loves you and has a wonderful life planned for you. Just listen to Him!
