All Battles aren't the same
All battles aren't the same, When I was in my 40's I got hit really hard and I had to fight my way through. I knew nothing about spiritual warfare and trusted God completely to help me through what was assailing me, God quietly whispered to me He will heal me that is what I had to go by.
I knew nothing of God's healing back then I had to wait 7 1/2 years, He was true to his word and healed me. But I wasn't completely healed , because what I had went through was so devastating it nearly took my life.
It took years to recover. And again at 62 I was hit, this battle has been going on for five years so far. Same type of battle and yet different. At one point I thought I'd never make it out, kinda reminds me of the other battle in my 40s.
So now that I'm 67, I'm starting with hope, and strength . I still am wondering can God use me again.? I feel too broken. Can I fully recover this time to do what I want to? I feel I can and I am on my way.
Pastor Kris V, Posted this blog and he help me see, the value in the battle.
" The wounds of a warrior are badges of honor. The weathered skin of the aged, are walls bathed in wisdom. Those who limp have gained patient insights into the paths of life. Scares on the reconciled heart are monuments to the Makers miracles.
To the young, untrained, and inexperienced, these are ugly flaws, disqualifying marks of life's failures and/or aging irrelevance; disposable people, who often are hidden away in homes or forced into obscurity by the blindly ambitious, ignorant, and insecure people.
Yet God often hides the greatest treasures of His grace in the twilight years of people's life when they can no longer perform. Here the arrogant, and the over confident would never think to look.
These treasures can only be unearthed through holy humility and heaven's parchments. So for most, these treasures will be buried and forgotten...marked by stones...and visited with flowers on occasion. Sometimes it's easier to pay your respects to the dead than it is to actually value the living. #kvm"
So in conclusion, keep battling, never give up no matter how long it takes. #TH
