Cast down, but not destroyed

Posted on by asherdc89

Hear my prayer o God, my heart is heavy and my soul is so painfully lonely. My Spirit is broken. With the last bit of my strength I am crying out to you. And if were ever to be my last breath I will cry out to you, and commit my spirit unto you.

Lord, what has become of my life?

Others have asked, what has happened to you?

While others have said, it is like one bad thing after another. Have I warrant such evil to fall upon me? Yet my heart is continuously wronged like a rag wringed out until there’s barely anything left. I am only flesh and blood, and what I’m going through surpasses the limits of my strength.

Help me please, I beg of you. Breathe life into me. So, I can live. Put a song of Joy in my heart to praise and worship you. Give peace to rest in you by faith.

And heal me to remember no more the pain and suffering I have been through. In Jesus Christ name I pray Amen

Since 2010, I've experienced promptings, encouragement as well as assistance from the Holy Spirit. The promptings led me to the word of God. This was the start of my own personal journey as I sought after the truth. God was then calling me as I sought after the truth according to His word. The truth was leading me to the decision to give my life to Him. I gave my life to God on the 28th of January 2012. Instantly, I had the desire to share with others the truth of God, that God is a God of love, truth, righteousness, holiness, mercy and justice. I couldn't keep something like this to myself in a lost and dying world, a world in a fallen state, and a world steeped in confusion concerning the view of who God is. My journey wasn't without struggle though, I realised through suffering we come to know God. To not only be humble, but to be empathic and not detached from people who are suffering. Sometime in 2012, God inspired me to become a writer just after my prayer to fulfill my purpose, the purpose of the reason of my existence. My prayer was a reflection of Isaiah 43:1-7. So I started writing essays pertaining to His word. I shared what I wrote with my family and friends. Therefore, the aspiration to help people globally, came with the realisation to give God the honour and the glory. To be part of making a difference. The inspiration to start blogging was impressed upon me to do. Through prayerful guidence, I believe God has led me to this point, which I believe is for His glory.
