Lord Help To Understand

Folder: 
Personal

I know it's the little things sometimes that people say we are emotional about. I have been a very sensitive person my whole life. I even used the word empathic. I was told this past Sunday as Christ follower I can't be empathetic because I can take control of my emotions. I don't feel what others feel around me. To me I thought of that as part of discernment and part of being an intercessor. I have friends who tell me that my trust in God is mental craziness. How dare I believe after everything I have been through and am going through. I won't lie there's days it's really hard. Especially pain filled mornings when it takes everything in me to get from my bed to the living room to make sure the house is okay before my daughter wakes up for school. When people say you should have budgeted for this and that and I have budgeted to my last penny and over because as a mom there's always something else when you have a teenage daughter. When everyday you can encourage others yet on the inside you are breaking down, going God help. I can't do this alone. When you refuse to compromise yourself and certain people want you to however you won't because your body is a temple of God and it is being saved for when he blesses you when the man who finds you as his wife and becomes your family covering and leader. God knows. Keep us in prayer fellow warriors and thank you.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

There's so much going on in our lives right now. Everyone I allow certain people to get close to me it's as if my words are used against me. I have said for years that I'm empathetic.  Now I'm being told it's worldly and I can control emotions and as a Christian I can control feeling others emotions.  I always thought Jesus was empathetic and had discernment. I'm confused and hurting and yes shutdown from church family again.  Lord I  don't understand anything I say in a private conversation is used against me so I am never saying another private personal thing about me ever again. What I say for ministry and to lead people to Christ is one thing however I will never again share anything with anyone personally again.
