You want to be happy but you can’t fake the pain. I get it.
This is for the person who needs someone to look them in the eyes and say …..
“It’s going to be okay.
You are stronger than you think and feel.
You’re not a lost cause.
You are not a quitter, unless you quit.
I know it hurts to breath.
I know you can’t get control of your racing thoughts, but greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. He will help you be still and give you that very breath."
.
The things you focus on will drain you or empower you so watch what you are doing in those dark moments.
Breath, don’t bash.
Calm, not chaos.
Meditate on Scripture, not secular theories.
Stop asking why and worship.
Worship the pain into praise.
.
When you can’t sleep, worship.
When you walk into chaos of circumstance, worship.
When you feel like you’re drowning, worship.
.
You’ve got this because He has you! Hold onto Him! Don’t give up!! Never forget you have an enemy looking for ways to shrink and sabotage you BUT GREATER is HE who is IN you than he who is in the world!
Read the Psalms.
Read Philippians 4.
Read Romans 8.
Read Genesis 1.
.
Pray and praise! I know it’s hard, but though we are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.
You are okay and you will have what you need for every next moment. Know that you’re never alone!! He sees you!! He loves you!!”
Be still and know what you know.

Fear holds us prisoner inner own mind.. I didn't feel my value was higher than others so quietness looked like meekness when in reality, there were times I was screaming on the inside, smiling on the outside. Joy comes when we surrender of fears to trusting faith.
Fear sifted and sorted my thoughts until I learned how to give faith that authority!
In the next few blogs, we will talk about different fears, what it looked like in my own life and why you can’t just “Do it” or “Have Faith.” Instead of dismissing someone’s fears or anxious thoughts, let’s take time to understand and teach people how to equip themselves physically, emotionally and spiritually, empowering them to manage their fear rather than dismiss them as silly.
