Facebook Confirmation and ME

Crystal got a message that on this day, God wants her to know...

"that God has an important purpose for you, and made everything possible for you to succeed. That's not to say it's an easy purpose, or a convenient one. It might very well seem hard or even impossible, but it only looks that way. The truth is that one day you will look back and see how all the pieces fit together. And how your life has been a complete and utter success."

Well what a relief! That is the message I received from the "See what God wants you to know" application on Facebook. I was blown away because that word is REAL to me. Many don't understand what I deal with, spiritually. The battle I face, how I am at war, seriously. This is a topic that I struggle with a lot. MY PURPOSE. I won't say I don't know what it is, cause I do. I won't say I don't want to do it, cause I do. But what I will say is it is hard. God has His hand on me, my path is unexplainable. I am so against the grain that sometimes I bruise. But with His help, the task is simple and attainable.

My thoughts afterward...


I am a sinner, I have to convict my flesh every day. I have purpose so my Father walks with me. When I fall He picks me up, when I am down He lifts me up. When I come up short, he compensates, when I lack, he fills my cup. He is merciful, over and over again. When I am weak, He is my strength. When I am sad he is my happiness. When people leave, He fills the void. When I cry, He wipes my tears and is my joy. When I am lonely, He speaks to me. When I need to talk, He listens. When I want to love, He allows the receiver to receive. When people are on their way, He makes space. He is merciful, over and over again. No one can understand how merciful He is to me, as many times as I've been broken, fallen, walked away and failed to believe, He still says...Crystal, you are forgiven, trust in Me, and I will keep you. But Lord, why? Why do you do this for me? Why am I so worthy I ask? He only smiles as the response. But just when I've given up asking, just when I've figured that His smile is just enough confirmation, He gently speaks....Surely goodness and mercy will follow you, all the days of your life, and you will dwell in the House of the Lord, forever...He is merciful, over and over and over again.
