Embarrassingly enough the last time i posted something was early last year and though this perhaps is no good excuse,the "blogger thing" is new to me but i wanna give it another try.
Let's have a little recap shall we?...for perhaps the few interested persons who wanna know what iv been doing..and why i'm back. MY WEEKEND WAS PHENOMENAL.but it didn't start out that way.So much has happened in my life in a matter of months that it blew my mind,broke my heart,stressed me out and made me cry.This weekend though,i Stella went on a retreat in search of serious answers..for serious questions. Faced with so many social,personal and academic hurdles..I was in essence..frantic and in despair but not anymore.
Exams. Serious exams were coming up,they still are actually but i speak of them in the past tense because they're no longer a worry. Philippians 4:13 "i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me". Problem solved~.because i know that along with the necessary discipline and trust in God i will be fine..HOW?..James 2:17 -Faith without works is dead. Now though the scriptures implies a much deeper meaning.Its most applicable to the situation in the literal sense.
Heartbreak.Lets me just start and finish by saying "getting dumped sucks" .Feeling unwanted,not needed, undesirable,unattractive,unimportant is what iv now concluded to be UNNECESSARY. I can breathe freely now without that large choking lump that rises to my throat every time the constant tears would cloud my eyes.No more despair.No more Profound sadness and loneliness.WHY?..because i recalled the story i was told some time ago..of the footprints in the sand.SYNOPSIS=This man was taken and shown the life that he had lived.He noticed that at the hardest and most trying periods in his life,there were only one set of foot prints in the sand.He found himself greatly disturbed by this and asked the Lord why..why when things were easy that there were two sets of footprints,both him and Jesus yet when things were rough,there was one(set,of foot prints that is) and Jesus replied...that is when i carried you. Likewise,Jesus has been carrying me through the hurt and the pain. Heart break can be some serious stuff depending on the intensity of the relationship. Therefore if more practical advice is needed perhaps step by step...do comment and i will be Soulfully happy to oblige.
That retreat provided in depth what i needed to hear,some of which i had already known but could not bring myself to accept and also things that i was so oblivious to.I got home a few hours ago and i feel a bit sleep deprived but what i acquire i must admit is so worth it. It much tooo much to simple share in one teensy weensy post. So you know for sure that im gona be telling you whats up and whats not.Please don't feel like this is ending abruptly but with class tomorrow at 9 am and having fearlessly not completed any homework this weekend I must retreat to my bed(lol)(forgive my bad humour).But rest assured that irrespective of any issue ANY ISSUE ,the Lord is you always and if your soo heavy laden that a prayer can barely pass your lips, trust that he knws all what your heart is longing to say and be healed of.
