I am in PAINS!!!

Right now, things might not be going the way you want. It's like everywhere you turn, sadness slaps your face and grief keeps running after you to give you a hug and you are wondering who you offended.

You feel all alone and you keep asking, "When will this pass, Will it ever pass?"

"Though mourning and sadness may last for the night, Joy comes in the morning." Psalm 30:5b(paraphrased)

No matter how dark the night may be, the sun will rise and no matter how heavy and long the rainfall is, and how dark the clouds looks, the sun will shine again.

Jesus said, He won't leave or abandon you, He's closer to you than your brother or your sister, He's holding your hands, he won't let you slip, He's holding you firm.

Yes, you feel alone but He's there, He's waiting to comfort you and give you peace, He wants to hold you close in his arms, hug you and give you warmth. He wants to put a smile on your face and uplift your heart.

Jesus cares for you, no matter what you are going passing through. He feels your pain and hurts with you.
In the midst of these, He has promised that, He will cause All, All,(not some) ALL things(the beautiful, bad and ugly) to work together for your good. (Check Romans 8:28)

He sees your tears, feels your pains. He understands! Yes, He does. However, if you are not convinced, then, pour out your heart to him, the grief, the pain, the anger, the confusion, the heartbreak.
Tell him everything and allow him to comfort you, heal you, restore you and be a father, a lover, a friend, a mother, a sister, a guardian, whatever, you wish him to be, let him be to you...

Jesus loves you and He cares.. It is well. Shalom!
