Friends tried to cheer me up, but it was no use-- I was just gone. But then one friend in particular showed up, and just told me what I needed to hear, no holds bars. She helped me to realize that I just needed to stop and turn to Jesus and that none of the suffering I endured or will endure in my lifetime will ever compare to the suffering that Jesus did on the cross. She totally convicted me, and just gave me a reality check-- a very critical reality check. I usually would be offended and hurt by the fact that someone had the audacity to call me out on my faults-- to hold me accountable for my actions and feelings.
Even though things aren't tremendous or anything, things really are starting to get better; it's a slow process, and at times a very painful one, but I'm getting there-- God's pulling me through this, you know? And I couldn't be more blessed and joyful (Note: Joy is quite different from Happiness). |
