He uses our pain for purpose, He doesn't cause it but He does allow it, in hopes that we'll give Him our mess. I remember the moment my assault came back and how embarassed and humiliated I was. He took it, I had to give it up a few times, but He took it and has allowed me to share my story to hopefully encourage others.
I hope you've never experienced trauma, but if you have, He can use it. It's hard, it's messy, you feel people judge you and some might. Let them. Your story is meant to glorify the Father and He will bring you the people that need to hear it so they can heal. We've all struggled, we all have hurts and habits and hangups we wish we didn't, but thankfully, we have a Heavenly Father that will take our mess and turn it into something beautiful.
Thank you Father for loving us in our mess, for never leaving us even when we walk away from you. We know You're always there, waiting for us to come home. Thank you for never forsaking us. We love You, we praise you, amen.
Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?
Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach. I gained 100 pounds in my late twenties and struggled for years to get it off. Seven years ago, I found a basic system that worked and has helped me lose 90 of those pounds. I’ve been working with women in online fitness and nutrition ever since to break chains of diet culture, embrace their bodies and fueling instead of dieting.
