Today I’ve needed to address something that has troubled me for many, many years. It is something which I’d given up ever seeing it come to fruition. What I hadn’t realized is what the effects of burying this within me has done. It has been brought to my attention by a few important people in my life in the past months, but I had felt helpless in how to address it. This morning I bought it to God while I was journaling. I asked for His wisdom and He reminded me that this struggle needed to include Him. Many years ago I had tried to do this but I hadn’t thought it worked so I quit trying. Today, I confessed this “giving up” to God and recommitted to not quitting this time.

I’m purposely not giving any more detail, for the detail is just between God and me and the one I share it with as James 5:16 tells us to do so we can find healing. I would wager that all of us have these areas in our lives. It is simply amazing to me how God patiently waits for us to awaken to them and give them over to His Love and Power to overcome. He never gives up on us and I don’t ever want to quit living as fully as possible for Him!
