There's healing in Your wounds..

I am going to be as transparent as possible today. Sometimes life just hurts.The truth is, today is just one of those days. We're brokenhearted, bewildered, confused, hurt, and missing people we love. For one reason or another, we have lost a lot of people that were so incredibly vital to our lives just a few months ago. And we still love them. Today, we are missing them and feeling the loss.

When I started this blog, I asked you to join me on my journey through life. Victory, happiness, and excitement are all part of it. And so is hurt, loss, and brokenness. God has really been showing me lately that its okay to grieve, be sad, and hurt. Christ did all of that. I think, in the name of being 'a woman of God', I often try to "stay strong". God is teaching me that 'staying strong' is a form of pride. Following Him means that when we go through difficult times, we cry, and we hurt, and we allow Him to lead us, guide us, and heal our broken hearts. And that's what I am choosing today. I am choosing to trust Him, worship Him, and allow Him to heal.

I just read this! I can not wait to see what He's going to do! :) Love you all! I'm so happy you're here with me!

Psalm 147
1 Praise the LORD! How good it is to sing praises to our God; for he is gracious, and a song of praise is fitting.
2 The LORD builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the outcasts of Israel.
3 He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds.
4 He determines the number of the stars; he gives to all of them their names.
5 Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; his understanding is beyond measure.
6 The LORD lifts up the downtrodden; he casts the wicked to the ground.
7 Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; make melody to our God on the lyre.
8 He covers the heavens with clouds, prepares rain for the earth, makes grass grow on the hills.
9 He gives to the animals their food, and to the young ravens when they cry.
10 His delight is not in the strength of the horse, nor his pleasure in the speed of a runner;
11 but the LORD takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his steadfast love.
