Hello Mid - Year

I have really struggled to excitedly usher in June with my custom "Happy New Month". ☺☺☺☺

With all that is going on right now locally & globally, I've been caught up in the net of Collective Grief and being an empath has not made it any easier. It truly is an extreme sport. 

Anytime you try watch the News so you can at least stay updated with the happenings, you end up depressed. It is one bad news to another. Before you process  women being un-alived by the very people they trusted to love and protect them, you are hit with youngins setting their peers ablaze for whatever reason. The economic situation doesn't make it any easier either. 

I have found myself asking God many questions:

How do I even pray?

For this country and all your people who are hurting?

Why are so many bad things happening at the same time?

Is it possible that You can just give us a break?

Cant You like just wave you hand and wipe every ounce of wickedness off the surface of the earth?

In true fashion of His sovereignty, God is yet to answer me & I don't know if He will but what I take comfort in is that I can still run to God even in the uncertainty and anxiety. I'm choosing to put my trust in God & His assurance in Jeremiah 17:7 "Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit".

I have confidence in God.

He has not been caught by surprise. He knows exactly what to do. 

He has assured that He will take care of us even to old age. 

May you find rest in God. 

Amidst the pain, the tears, the fear, the anxiety & uncertainty that has come with recent happenings. 

I pray for you. That you would experience God's comforting embrace.
