Hi Alece,

After reading much on this site, I have determined that you need to stop this. God hears your heart. He knows that all of this is a distraction to you that is keeping you from being your best for Him. Think about where you will be as you walk with Him in the future. Are you going to be thanking Him for the insight He will reveal to you after a year or so goes by? Of course you will. You have been used greatly by Him and He will continue to use you greatly. This is not your fault. He has someone even better for you. I guarantee that!

As I txt my daughter at school today, I reminded her that she should do her best and God is with her to make it happen. So, I say the same to you.

Peace!

There will always be a “we” – yourself and the Lord!

Ahh… when you slip up, just imagine you’re a queen and that is just a “royal we”.

I went through that time when I was no longer a “we” and didn’t know if I ever would be again… in a small way, I can relate, and whew… tough…

I hope with each day, each post, the image of the old “we” starts to fade into the background, as the “we” of all your friends, family and your God, shines more brightly.

Man, that’s a tough one, sass. There is loss, but also just not wanting to be alone. I find myself talking in “we” referring to me and the DOG. There is something comforting about that sentiment… I’m sorry you’re missing it.

Just know that while I’ll never be sitting next to you holding your hand, you’re never alone in this.

I don’t mean to belittle what you are saying here by saying something clever or cheap – but it seems to me that as you grow and learn and become what you are becoming – God is making you into whatever it is that He is growing you into because you are surrendering and obeying and so it maybe might not be as you may want it to look like or sound like and people may not understand it and maybe you might not get it either but seriously, you have never been alone on this journey. Not even a moment of it. I know how isolating it may feel and I know the days are long and crazy – but wow Alece. I promise, we are going to get through this and tomorrow is going to be better, even if it takes us several days to get there. You are loved beyond measure.

The heart I now have is one that God gave me once I was willing to surrender it all to Him and try to walk in obedience. It is all to His glory.
Thank you for your comments and follow-up email, Alece. It is clear that God is working in your life. I have sent you a reply. Peace.

Loss.
Rejection.
Pain.

They hurt. Like a lot. Like there are no words.
But for each of those, God is a healer. We gain in Jesus Christ. He accepts us. And He walks with us through our pain because He walked on the same earth we walk on a long time ago.

That doesn’t make it any better. The pain is going to hurt and the others are still going to stink. But with God on your side, you are rockin it. your team is rockin it. you and God are rockin it. So even though you can have TREMENDOUS loss, life in Christ is such a MAGNIFICENT win. and even though you can be rejected by man, Christ will accept you deeper and more than you can ever know. And even though you’re hurting, there will be freedom from this pain. And God is with you, stranger.
