What’s so good? It’s all lies, how can it be good? You cannot know God and be angry at Him, it’s NOT possible. You cannot know God and deliberately want to move away from Him, it’s NOT possible.
I don't even know where to start this comment. But I have been in that dark place of angered and hurt rebellion. I have experienced being prodigal. Right now I'm in a season where life is hard and everything seems downright impossible. I'm in a season where I'm not super excited to crack open my word and spend time. I do spend time with Him though out of obedience and desire to be in Him even if it isn't for long. I'm just feeling distant because I don't understand the plan. If I'm obedient then why are the things He's called me to do always hindered, attacked and difficult? I don't know- it isn't really about answers I suppose. It's more along the lines of oh I've been here before with you God...I'm angry, frustrated, sad and disappointed that my life is how it is right now. It's been a long, hard road in my life. My husband and I lost our first child due to miscarriage. I grieved....and I ran. I ran as far away as the Holy Spirit would let me. I became someone my family and husband didn't recognize. They couldn't even tell me I was different because they feared my reaction. It wasn't until after I started healing spiritually that they let me know I was starting to come back to life, be myself again, instead of this cold, hard, angry, bitter and mean person. Eventually I realized as much pain as I was in God knew what it was like to lose a child, and who better to have comfort me? Who or what else was I going to worship anyway? Yea though He slay me, still I will trust in Him. I find myself in a similar spot now but not the same, not as deep. This time I know it'll be OK as long as I stay clinging to Him. I'm glad the Lord brought this message to my attention, I needed to hear it. I just wanted to share in case my testimony can help someone else. God bless you.
hi i know i'm may be a bit younger than you but first i want to thank you for this testimony sometimes our past stories are hard to tell but they're also our greatest blessings but i just wanted you to know, and i hope you take this as an act of love, the reason why the more you obey God and the more you feel attacked and hindered is because where you're going the devil doesn't want you to be so he tries to sike you out of the blessings God has for you, God's not the producer of our heartache the miscarriage you had was straight from the enemy to get you discouraged and to disconnect from God but the best thing to do when the enemy attacks is go bless others
Isaiah 41:10 "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
Jenn as a widow of 4 years currently.at the time I was 37 & growing up religious ik how to be active n the church & act okay...God permitted me to leave my home church yes a year after burying my hubby & creating a ministry n my late hubby name & not having women support....so I left questioning angry scared as I was & am far from perfect but I was a single mom out here by myself..in the new church I learned prophecy...smthng as a person being n church my whole life had never heard b 4... I began hearing from God more but I still was very sensitive & unfortunately spoke to the wrong person to end up publicly embarrassed by the Pastor which led me to coaches & eventually threapy again..so like u & these women, I was like Lord why n the world would u allow this to happen to me...in my anger it birth an online ministry That was messy advocating for God but not peeps "Christi Corner"& even getting to the core which was despite my maturity & many accomplishment s( wife mom Prof graduate), the core was I had never felt good enough b/c I was never the "chosen" child or the child that got the attention b/c I was told oh ik ur okay but deep down I wasn't & that festered for many years & n many relationships so although I looked good on paper not so much personally.....well 4 years later today I actually graduate n becoming a life coach.. I'm n graduate school for my doctorate n Pastoral counseling & my kiddo is getting ready to go n her sr year of highschool...pls google Ephesians n knowing your season is jxt that temporary..we will never understand y God chooses us but I have gained solace in knowing (or @ least that's what I tell myself 🤪😂😂😂), is he chose me to tell others how to handle it...Romans 8:28....this very weekend today I was n the funeral services of my late husband..today I'm graduating... God's timing is perfect in knowing he has a plan & we don't have to like it or understand it but we have to respect him...get happy - look forward to what's next ☺️.....Ephesians 3:20...God bless u...I speak that he provides u w/ the clarity u need for the future to b a help to others...God bless you & your family...
Yeah sometimes life (even with God) seems to make no sense at all. I remember watching videos of the channel The Bible Project where they talk about the different perspectives of life in the bible, through Proverbs, Ecclesiastic and Job. They are 5 minutes videos with beautiful animation. It might shade some light a bit on how random life can be. I would start with Proverbs first since it’s the first book they look at.
As believers we share in each others tears. As I read your comment I began to tear up as I know that place of frustration and anger and just lack of zeal all too well. I got the coffee mug and the t-shirt. I have been out of this place and recently back in to a degree. However I have been far too deep with God to jump ship, I know He is good regardless of my questions at the moment. Glad you have been coming back to life 🌻 and may the Lord continue to give you strength💪🏽✝️ thanks for sharing. This is a very real struggle for people. For anyone who needs encouragement if you find yourself in this place know that God is not mad at you or discouraged about your life or where you are at the moment. Keep leaning even with tears and even with a limp, He's faithful. And if you dont get an answer manifest yet, well just ask for His perspective in the meantime. His grace is sufficient in all things friends✝️
Just started watching Better Together the end of last year and wow I have been so incredibly blessed. Watching tonight has lifted my spirit so much 💙🙏 I could cry. Thank you so much TBN for such raw content.
Thank you again, I have no one, but I been praying for people in my life that loves Jesus, every time I watch you you help me.thank you good and faithful servant's of the most high 💔➕❤️🙏🌹
I was just journaling that I didn't have tears to shed today. But then when Karen shared about her story I started 😭 continuously. I have been walking through an incredibly difficult health situation the last 3.5+ years. I've had to do basic tasks differently all throughout then & it got a lot more complicated during 2020 on. Then I ended up getting Covid in January and have been battling Long Covid ever since. This week I've been under an incredible amount of discouragement. I found myself playing "I'll Give Thanks" in the car today and just really needing to hear it. I know God is with me, even though I have been in a continually long dark, isolating season. I try to focus on one day at a time - lately it's been literally one moment at a time. Like Karen mentioned - I know God has the power to heal. And amen to Romans 8:28 - for your good and HIS glory. I will continue to walk step by step leaning on His strength.
I absolutely love this channel. Such honest, transparent and love filled conversation. I’m always blessed when I watch it. Thank you for sharing this ministry with the world 💕
Ladys god bless you all and yall family and yall friends you all have a wonderful fantastic awesome bless safe day enjoy the rest of your day god love you all 🙏📖😊😘❤🌹
Ohhh my oh my ladies! I enjoyed the vulnerability, openess and honesty in sharing. Thank you Allison and Karen. I really resonated with Karen's story. Exactly what you said, it hit me! I was mad, I didn't pray, read my bible, worship none. I didn't want to talk to God! But as you said, you know you want that relationship with God and you can't live without Him. I mean when God is all you know and He is the true and Living God, who else do you go to?? I got back though. I am still in this difficult season and I don't understand it. It's been so hard on me and I struggle with it but I have been the decision to trust God in the midst of the storm. Take it one step at a time, tune out the naysayers and remain in Him. God is faithful
Remembering God 🥺❤️. Membering ourselves to His unfathomable character, again. He is so compassionate even in those moments of “God, I’m not really feeling You”. We shut the door on Him and He waits for us. He is so patient with us it’s so unbelievable to witness sometimes. I really love God because through it all, He will be there. I hope we remember Him 🙏🏾🥺❤️.
