@the-fledgling-artist I was dealing with a lot of pain and situations where I couldnt help other people much but I had to have thier help, which is like the worst. I hate that. I wanted to help others, and not need help myself. Dying sounded great, and there were times I thought I might anyway just from what was going on. But I knew that God was taking me through this so I could be stronger and learn a lot (which I have, for goodness sakes, and continue to) and it would help me to be able to help others better someday. It was really hard, and I still hated myself. But our purpose on this earth is to glorify God and He was enabling me to do that better in a pretty strange way. So, right now I am at a place where I know I might die anytime and woohoo when it happens XD but until then I am so, so happy to stay on this crazy wonderful earth and help all the people I can and praise God who put me here to do it. The Lord of creation gave me a job here, and an exciting one, so why would I want to do anything else right now? There is so much to do in such a dark world. Sure, we will never be able to change it all, but hey why not try? 😀
God can and does use broken people to help broken people. On our own, we can’t fix anything, but God is somehow able to take us with all our flaws and use us for good in other people’s lives.
Blast, that is so true! 😀 Anyway, hang in there girl. What Satan means for evil, God can use for good. The Devil might be trying to get you down right now, so dont let him discourage you. Remind him of his future cause it aint pretty. XD
