I’ve always countered my anxious mind with the word of truth. I do not understand or know what the truth is and so my mind gets easily pulled into misguided paths assuming that this must be the truth.
Indeed the world has made a truth of its own, apart from God’s seeking self-worth instead of looking towards others.
Jeremiah, the weeping prophet, was one who earnestly cries out to the Lord. Experiencing pain, deep lament and suffering are seen as undesirable in an age of prejudice against those weak in spirit. Only the successful and acclaimed are celebrated. We forget what the Lord sees as beautiful.
God’s creation of the earth is very much based on the idea of a family of sisters and brothers, not genetically related but related through the blood of Christ.
My personal journey of brokenness, failure and loveless-ness. We call out to the Lord to ask for guidance. Sometimes we are guided into deeper pain, other times into deep repentance, reminding me that there is no other way except to constantly crawl back to Christ.
Sometimes the path gets sticky and muddy and I want to give up, but God’s spirit in us seems to shine through the void. At the end of the day, the Lord only wants our obedience. A listening ear, an open heart and a thirst for his spirit. – V.S.
