God's Forgotten Me? Dear One, Then things go wrong it can seem as if God has forgotten us. Because you're reading this, it seems that you are going through a hard time. First, I'd like to say I'm sorry to hear of your difficulties. Sometimes it seems that life is not fair, and often it's not. But that doesn't mean that God has forgotten you. As hard as it is to believe right now, no matter what you are going through God loves you and has a plan for your life. Perhaps your feeling of abanonment has caused you to even consider suicide. Before you think of ending your life, know this -- when you commit suicide, it's like you are turning your back on God. You are saying, I will no longer trust you as I will have to take care of this matter myself and end my life. I am not willing to go through pain to reach through to your plan. Did you know that Jesus wept when he did not arrive in Bethany in time to heal his friend Lazarus. The reason he wept is because he loved Lazarus and his family and it pained him to see these loved ones in such great grief. Interestingly, Jesus knew that He was only moments away from resurrecting Lazarus from the dead. Still he was moved by the tears of his friends, and wept with them. Listen me, it know it seems all has been lost. But God wants to you know a few things:
I myself have had terrible circumstances in my life. When my baby was thrown out of a car during a violent car crash, she spent a year in coma. The doctors tried to get me to pull her plug and end her life. I was finally so distraught that I almost pulled her plug and my plug as well. Finally, even though I didn't want to, I gave my daughter up to God. I came Him the circumstance she was in -- blind, on life support, unable to speak. When I did, He did not heal her, instead, he gradually began to heal my heart. It took a lot of time. Now, 15 years later, my daughter is still terribly disabled, but both our hearts are healed. My daughter is joyful and free of the heartaches of life. And so am I. That can happen for you too. Someday you will be reunited with the ones you may have lost, the circumstances that hurt you will be changed, the sun will come out, the flowers will bloom, and you will smile. Please, do not take your life. Please allow time and God to heal your heart. I know that you are hurting. But others have been where you are, including me, and have walked, one step at a time, out of the darkness. You will too. You are going to make it. To read my story, click here. Here's what I recommend to you:
Don't do anything to harm yourself. You are so loved. Please give your situation time, please allow God time to move. He may be waiting for you to give in to Him, to say, God I will trust you, no matter what. Try trusting God and see what will happen. Also, please go in for a medical checkup and tell your doctor about how you feel emotionally. Your doctor may have medications that can help you get over this 'bump' in the road. Also, I highly recommend counseling. You may find a pastor in your church or other local church or some other professional who will understand and help you with your struggles.
