finding wholeness in the brokenness

FROM LEE IN TENNESSEE: Q&A... On Being Too Flirtatious, Or Else Just Getting To Know You →

makemelodies asked you:

I got to know a Christian guy who did mission work in our country. I hope to get to know him better but we weren’t really able to talk that much. Is it okay for me to initiate a conversation on Facebook? (It’s the only way we’re connected right now.) I’m…

this made me laugh. made me think of a conversation I had with a friend about initiation. kind of want to talk to this random guy, but I barely know him. wonder if taking the risk is worth it?

It breaks my heart to see my sisters in Christ suffer and question their life. It takes all of me not to scream out to them GOD LOVES YOU. STOP LISTENING TO THE LIES. HE WILL NOT LEAVE YOU. HE LOVES YOU SO MUCH. IF ONLY YOU COULD BELIEVE THAT !

Funny how you can give that advice to someone yet doubt it yourselves. Oh you cunning enemy. I will not give into your tricks!

RAWR!!

LOL.

Out on the farthest edge

There in the silence

You were there

My faith was torn to s h r e d s

Heart in the balance

And You were there

Always faithful, always good

You still have me

You still have my heart

I thought I had seen the end

Everything b r o k e n

But You were there

I’ve wandered at heaven’s gates

I’ve made my bed in hell

You were there still

Always faithful, always good

You still have me

You still have my heart

You have me, You have me

You have my heart completely

You have me, You have me

You have my heart completely

Do you hear the enemy’s voice telling you that you’re not good enough? Or do you feel that God has abandoned you?

Child of God, What’s causing your disbelief?

Who are you really listening to?

You say you don’t hear God’s voice. Then whose voice are you hearing?

irresistible

when you encounter God, there’s no turning back.

In fact…you can’t resist Him. It’s impossible.

Now, if only he felt the same. I wish he could encounter God.

Still praying.

Marriage is hard work. Finding “the one” doesn’t change that. There is no such thing as a fit so perfect that everything just goes effortlessly. That is because marriage is taking two sinful, fallen, selfish people, slamming them together in a small space and saying “figure it out”.
