God remembers your prayers

I just want to take this time today to thank God for giving me a beautiful surprise.

It was so beautiful that I kept holding my tears the whole time it was happening.

It was an unexpected event, one that I thought would never come.

Many times in our lives, we want God to change our situation. We cry out to him passionately; telling him all the reasons why He should change our situation but He doesn’t do so. Many of us remain in the situation and become bitter but some of us live through the grace God has given and more often than not, the second group emerges happier and more blessed.

I have been through challenging situations last year.

The enormous emotional pain inflicted by superiors and the physical pain I am feeling because of the medical procedure has certainly tested my spirit; but I did not give up.

Day and night, I would cry out to God to spare me from the negative feelings I was in and I really hoped that He would remove the biggest reason for my pain.

But He didn’t.

But I kept on trusting God.

One year later…

We’ve heard it all before, that God orchestrates circumstances to happen in order to lift you up and promote you. We’ve always thought that they would come in lovely packages and that we would readily recognize that they are beautiful gifts. But not everything happens according to our imagination.

Sometimes, an ugly situation is actually a disguised gift that would set you free from what has been hurting you.

This is exactly what happened to me today. What I thought was another setback was in fact, a setup that  freed me from the negative emotions I have been suffering from for over a year now.

God did not change my situation but He has made me grow into a better person.

Now, I have another testimony.  

God is amazing.


***If you are suffering from emotional pain, cry it all out to God. Also, tell a trusted friend or a church member to pray for you. We tend to forget our prayers but God remembers them. If God was able to do it for me, He can do it for you. God can remove your pain if you let Him…If you put all your faith in Him.
