Can I just tell you how awesome it is to be in His presence? I mean we are always with Him whether we recognize it or not, but too actually feel and notice that He is breathing life into your lungs, it's indescribable. I love this feeling like happiness could just burst out of me. I can't help but smile all the time. I want to be more like Him. I want to be joyful so I can give others joy. Last night I was told by God that I can't spread hope unless I have hope in myself. I have always been one to listen and try and solve everyone else's problems. But when mine needed the solving, I ignored them. If you try and heal your own life, complications will occur and that old wound will never fully heal. I've finally let God relieve all of my worries and my pain. I am so secure in Him and knowing that He is with me gives me strength in myself. Being happy doesn't mean never being upset. It means recognizing that God will use that sadness and with His grace bring out Joy. Thank You so much Lord, I feel like I can unselfishly live my life for You and glorify You with everything that I do.
2nd Corinthians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort; who comforts us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound to us, even so our comfort also abounds through Christ. But if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation. If we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.
