False Hopes

The past can sometimes creep upon us like an invisible fog, before a down pour of rain. For some the past has never left us. We blindly walk through day to day in a state of false reality. Our lives are filled with people, places and things that keep us connected to our past. Subconsciously we envision ourselves living this life, even though it does not exist. Because we are convinced all is well, we are not aware of the negative impact this has on everyone else around us. This can happen if a once thriving, and loving relationship ends abruptly. Because we want this relationship so badly, we hold on to anything and everything that had to do with that relationship. We see this as a chance to make amends and get things back on the right track. What we don't see is this state of mind is making it difficult for us to move forward and maintain a happy and healthy life. God does everything for a reason, even though He may never reveal them to us. What He does want us to do in our time of need is pray and rely on Him for continued strength and understanding. Anytime something hurtful occurs in our life, there is a tendency to over analyze to find an alternate solution that best suites our needs. The only answer to any problem is the answer God provides. In order for us to receive it, we must earnestly seek his will for our lives. This means we must continue to pray and study his word. By doing so, this keeps us in an intimate relationship with Him. He only has our best interest at heart, and believe it or not He will bring you through with minimal scars. So don't allow yourself to get swept into that world of false hope. Whatever God has for you, will be revealed to you at His appointed time.

Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Be Blessed,

Lady 4.0
