Will You Listen?

And she heard it on the wind…

The sound of her own voice silently whispering the depth of her hopelessness.

But God spoke to her louder and said “hopelessness is not a feeling but a place; a place where you do not belong.”

He said “I have been with you and I will always be with you. Do not fret My love. YES the days are long and YES! The nights are longer, but remember forever and always that what doesn’t kill you will only make you stronger.”

Such beautiful words and how powerful they’d be for her if heart could only feel them and her ears could hear them.

Her walls were too high and heart too broken to listen to words unspoken.

What I mean to say is this:

It is not God whom fails us but we who fail God. Yet, He’s always right there. If only we’d listen and turn to Him.

Isaiah 43:1-2

“But now, this is what the Lord says— he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭43‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬
