  • It Just Doesn't Get Better...

    I found an eviction notice when I got home.


    I don't think I can take anymore.. I don't have the strength and I feel like I'm letting God down, or something... I still know he's there and still believe He loves me. It just hurts...

      Teal, words fail a person at times like this. BUT, God WILL deliver you from this, count on it.

      3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures --1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (borrowed with gratitude from 37818's sig)

          Praying, and standing with you in faith. It seems I've missed a great deal of your story in the time I've been away, so I'm just saying I love you and hoping that helps tonight.

              Eviction is a slow process in Alabama so I can stay awhile longer. I will call a lawyer tomorrow ..

                Do you have any family or friends that would give you a place to crash?

                  Yes, probably.

                  I will think about it tomorrow when I feel better.

                    We are all praying for you, Teallura. We have your back. Things will get better. I know it doesn't seem like it right now, but it will.
                    "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." ― C.S. Lewis, God in the Dock: Essays on Theology (Making of Modern Theology)

                        Thank you, everyone.

                        At the moment my neighbors need prayer. Three police cars, a fire track and paramedics have gone past in the last five minutes. The road doesn't let out.

                        Someone says something is burning down there.

                          2 fire trucks, an ambulance, paramedics, and another police car. Not sure if there are injuries but it seems the local meth lab burned down...
