You're In Good Company!
Have you ever felt like you were going through a particular situation on your own?
Do you find yourself listening hard for the Lord for direction on what you should or should not do?
How many times would you say you went to a friend and expected them to understand what you're feeling and/or where you're coming from, only for them to reference a scripture or tell you what you already know?
Can you relate to one or all three of the above & say to yourself, 'self, she must know me, because she's hitting the nail on the head'!
I'm a firm believe that if I wasn't going through... If trials & tribulations didn't come knocking at least once a week... If I didn't feel moments of weakness. Then I must not be doing something right! You see, if the enemy had you, he wouldn't have to try so hard to derail you on your walk. If the enemy had you, he wouldn't have to pull all of his non-new tricks on you. He wouldn't even need to tempt you, or whisper doubt, lies, deceit and/or mess in your mind.
If you ever feel confused, then remember, "For God is not a God of confusion but of peace. As in all the churches of the saints." - 1 Corinthians 14:33
When you feel like you're being defeated, arm yourself with, "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good, acceptable & perfect"! - Romans 12:2
Know that the Lord doesn't expect for you to not really feel the hard times... He knows you'll get frustrated with the various day-to-day life issues you'll face. He's even aware that you'll want to throw in the towel (key word: 'want'). So when you find yourself in these situations, You're In Good Company! Just always make it a point to praise Him in advance, because He can & will bring you through it!

Well guess what brother & sisters in Christ, You're In Good Company!
