♕ Today's Promise: "Therefore, since through God’s mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart." 2 Corinthians 4:1 NIV
I just would like to praise the Lord for blessing me with broken marriages. I don't know how He will fix it but I know He will restore. So easy to see the destruction of marriages and to be quite frank, I'm all out of ways on how to reach the women. They're angry, all angry. The men, my (real) brothers, do not seem to care about restoration. An older woman, my best friend's mom, is so angry at an alleged cheating. I don't know how to approach them. Then God led me to remember this woman, the first woman I reached out to with a copy of the ebook of How God can and will restore your marriage.
It was almost 5 yrs ago now, a workmate told me about her brokenness due to husband's adultery, and using her money, and it was God showing me the way to reach out via a messaging app. Though she had trouble with saying too much, she seemed to have gotten into the Word when I stopped replying. Now I ask about her through the common friend and she knows nothing other than she seems happily married.
I ask God to bring me broken women, those whom He has prepared to receive His Word. In the meantime, I myself have to bury myself in His grace. I know I lack, only through His grace and mercy will I be filled. My journey has been long and it's still going on. I have to immerse myself in His love so that when the ladies are ready, I am too, to share about how good He is and how He wants to be our First Love.
I continue to seek God on what I am supposed to do, and ask that He may send the Holy Spirit to lead the way to the broken, hurting women whom He has called, the future women who shall also speak of His love.
I am declaring that these women will know of their First Love. My imperfect journey will not hinder their path to know the One who loves them the most.
"Therefore, since through God’s mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart." 2 Corinthians 4:1 NIV
I sometimes get frustrated for being unable to speak of Him, who He is and what we are called to do. Sometimes I feel I'm doing less than what He has called me to do. Am I being picky of whom I speak to, am I afraid I will be judged? Yes. But I seek for God's mercy so I can do His will, approach the right women, and not aggravate the anger in these hurting women. The difficulty I am facing can only be resolved through the love of God and me learning more of Him so I can speak appropriately who He really is.
