Hope

Have you ever just wanted to curl up and let fate have you? All the awful feelings you have inside...the hole in your stomach, the nausea, the heavy head, never seems to go away. You could walk into a perfectly lit and very bright room, yet no matter how many lights light up that area, there still seems to be a constant dim veil that blocks the light from getting into your soul. The hole I mentioned? It wants to swallow you up, and that's the point where you want to curl into a ball and let the hole have you. You say, "Ok! You win! Take me! I'm ok with you taking me!"

But then...Divine Providence throws you a life saver. You go from suffocating, drowning, slowly dying, whatever you want to call it, to surviving, learning how to cope, learning how to live and feel again...at least feel anything but the hurt you have been feeling. It's a miracle. And you know that it couldn't have been you. It was your Savior. How amazing and exquisite it is to know that there is someone out there bigger than you who loves you enough to give His life for you and give you strength and something to hold on to. He loves you enough to help you out, even when it's the most insignificant of trails. How amazing He is! How amazing.
