I received a text message from someone today. I don’t know who is the person but I just replied. The text message says ‘please pray for me’ and when I asked who.. the person did not give me any names instead keep telling me that he/she lost and feel rejected. The person suffered and really hurt. Lies had destroyed him/her. He/she asked me how I managed to forget the past and move on. The person want me to give whatever tips I had. Wahhh… seem like this person know me (the person might know me since my number is with him/her hehehehe or maybe the person got it from someone else).
Anyway, I’m not good in advising. I can’t teach but can share a little bit. I asked him/her to forgive the persons who had hurts him/her and slowly forgets what had happens. Don’t walk alone and not to take the entire burden alone. Ask strength from God. Give everything to Him and offered the person name that have hurt him/her to God in each of daily prayer. I know it will take times but is worth.
I shared to this person that I’ve a same problem before. In fact it took decades to undo the hurts. At the time I was facing a lot of uncertainty and doubt and realized that He was there right beside me through it all. I remember wanting to feel God’s presence so badly but just feeling dry and empty. I began reflecting about the price that Christ paid on the cross that He literally "crawled and bled" as He carried the cross and how His skin and His heart was broken so we could be whole.
I hope this person get the message.. I really mean it…. Without God life is incomplete… put God first in everything we have…

ReplyDeleteHi C.Alv.B,
ReplyDeleteWe enjoy warmth because we have been cold.
We appreciate light because we have been in darkness.
By the same token, we can experience joy because we have known sadness.
Best regards, Lee.
sharing is the best form of reaching out to the unknown. I think u did just that.
ReplyDeleteIn contrary, if we offer advice/tips/etc, some people may see it as us forcing our ways on them. BEST WISHES!
I wonder who ....
ReplyDeleteI hope he's okay
Spread the love God gave you. Regards always...
