Can you see my pain???

Thought for the day:
God Enlightens the mind, as he strengthens the heart, revives the spirit, replenish the body and rejoices the soul to endure and overcome our trials.


Can you see my pain???

Today is one of those emotional days, where memories flood my soul with laughter, joy, pain and sorrow.  The emptiness and loneliness of once having the fullness of all your children visiting you, loving on you and praying with to now for whatever reason most won’t even call and check on you. What children don’t know or will ever understand is one child is never more important than the other, you just learn to make do with what you have.

As I sit here and smile, It’s funny how the mind locks in all phases of life, whether good or bad, one day I even cried and said Lord do you see my pain?  Do you feel my hurt?  Then I imagined that is what my Savior felt on the cross for me.  During this season of my life I have lost so much, but O what I have gained in His Love, grace and mercy.  He constantly fills my heart with His love.  He is a heart fixer, a mind regulator and a burden bearer.  If it had not been for the Lord on my side where would I be?

Jesus saw my pain and felt my hurt.  There is no medicine that can stop certain pain or heal some hurts.  Only Jesus can!  O glory to his name for He is worthy, truly worthy of all the praise.

See if I had not had those pains, I would not have known the depth of God’s love.  Where Satan’s aim was to destroy me; God in His infinite love just wrapped me in His arm and held me.  Carried me and healed me.


Can I tell someone how Awesome He is?  Can I shout today….YES because He loves me… I have faced so many tomorrows.

Romans 8:35 and 39b  Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?. .........shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Dear to His Heart

Psalm 106:1 (KJV)
Praise ye the Lord. O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

Good Morning,


How marvelous it is to know that you belong to God and that He holds you close to his heart.   
Every day I praise Him because I can feel His enfolding love as I silently weep for the mental loss of my husband. It is in this season that I have realized how much Christ’s must be the prevailing force of my life.

Man’s love is only given when it pleases them. God’s love never fails and is always shown no matter what is said or done. So today I encouraged myself in the Lord. As the great Psalmist says, “O give thanks unto the Lord for He is good and His Mercy endureth forever.”

Today I pray that whatever you are going through that this morning we can encourage each other in the Lord!!!  Because the goodness of God is that He ever loves and cares for His own!!

Thought for today
Love increases not decreases,
Love includes not excludes,
Love embraces and not defaces,
Love creates and not destroys
Love enhances and not demeans,
Love exalts and not tear down.
True Love heals as it forgives.

To God be the Glory for I am truly loved by Him.
