Revealed.

My mom called to check up on me and remind me just how faithful God is. She's been doing a devotional but was a few days behind but decided to go ahead and catch up anyways and how much these next few exerpts apply to Brennan leaving and all this crap with my relationship is unreal. It's mindblowing how much God has reavealed himself to me since Monday and I feel like God meets you right where you are:

"Come to me for rest and refreshment. The journey has been too much for you are you are bone-weary. Do not be ashamed of your exhaustion. Instead, see it as opportunity for Me to take charge of your life. Remember that I can fit everything into a pattern for good, including THINGS YOU WISH WERE DIFFERENT. Start with where you are at this point in time and space, ACCEPTING that this is where I intend you to be. You will get through today one step, one moment at a time. Your main responsibility is to remain attentive to Me, letting Me guide you through the many choices along your pathway. This sounds like an easy assignment, but it is not. Your desire to live in my presence goes against the grain of "the world, the flesh, and the devil." Much of your weariness results from your CONSTANT BATTLE against these opponents. However, you are on the path of My choosing, so do not give up! Hope in Me, for you will again praise Me for the help of My presence."
- "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose." - Romans 8:28
- "Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God." - Psalm 42:11


"I am above all things: your problems, your pain, and the swirling events of this ever-changing world. When you behold My Face, you rise above circumstances and rest with me in heavenly realms. This is the way of Peace, living in the light of My Presence. I guarantee that you will always have problems in this life, but they must not become your focus. When you feel yourself sinking in the sea of circumstances, say, "Help me, Jesus!" and I will draw you back to Me. If you have to say that thousands of times daily, do not be discouraged. I know your weakness and I meet you in that very place."
- "And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms of Christ Jesus.." - Ephesians 2:6
- "Lord, if it's you," Peter replied, "tell me to come to you on the water." "Come," He said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind he became afraid, and, beginning to sink cried out, "Lord, save me!" Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. "You of little faith," he said, "why did you doubt?" And when they climbed back in the boat, the wind died down." - Matthew 14:28-32


"Seek my face more and more. You are really just beginning your journey of intimacy with me. It is not as easy road, but it is a delightful and privileged way: a treasure hunt. I am the treasure and the glory of my presence glistens and shimmers along the way. Hardships are part of the journey too. I map them out ever so carefully, in just the right dosage, with a TENDERNESS YOU CAN HARDLY IMAGINE. Do not recoil from afflictions, since they are among My most favored gifts. Trust Me and do not be afraid, for I am your strength and song."
- "My heart says of you, "Seek His face!" and your face, Oh lord, I will seek." - Psalm 27:8
- "But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us." - 2 Corinthians 4:7
- "Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense. He has become my salvation." - Isaiah 12:2

..I've been clinging to these all day. Today has not been easy but for every dark night, there's a brighter day after that. So I'm handling it all the best way I know how and somehow, that's good enough, because Christ will always suffice.
