Parker Inspirations

I am trying to not let my emotions cloud my judgment of the circumstances in my life. However, my emotions are on the surface and it does not take much for me to cry. I understand now why the Bible states that David encouraged himself in the Lord. At times like these no one wants to hear negative opinions from others. I do not need Job friends. I am trying to trust in the Lord and know he is in control.

The question is: If the table were turned would they want me to act the way they are acting? I believe that we all want someone to be strong and just pray. I do not need words; I need to know that they are praying and that they also believe that God has the power to change things around. Often, I feel as though poo on their shoe is treated better. We all have struggles and need encouragement. We sing a song at Church, “The Family of God” and in the song it says “when one has a heartache, we all shed a tear” I sure do not feel like that is true for me.

God gives us Hope that tomorrow will be better. Through his word he gives us direction so we can keep going forward. I know who holds tomorrow and I know who holds my hand. God and God alone is all I need. While it would be nice to have friends that would just pray without knowing the details, I know that God is my only comfort. Only God knows the depth of my heart.
