Kicking and Screaming

Lauriellen:  it's because of your testament that I like this site; people here are not afraid to speak the truth; they say things that others are thinking but have a hard time expressing, as myself.  Then there are those who respond with great encouragement and words of wisdom. 

I, also awake in the wee hours or I don't sleep thinking of my circumstances asking why.  Then, I think as you do that it's God's plan and I don't see the whole picture but why is it taking so long?  Will I ever see?  What's the point etc....It just keeps rebounding.  Then I have to reread "free will"  and reread because I don't see the result that I expect.  God has also let me see my stubbornness which I'm not ready to let go of just yet.  I see circumstances of others and feel ashamed. 

Thank you for letting us see that we're all in the same boat just riding a different wave.

Thanks All,
I must admit, it feels like the waves never stop.....depression, anger, hopelessness, despair, acceptance, peace, calm,....then it starts all over.  :P  I was at an all time low a few days ago, when I got up in the night, I got up and began to read.....There is a particular subject that I have not been able to have any clarity on in many many years. It involves the resurrection. Surfing thru my frequently used sites, I came upon a couple articles that I hadn't read before, and BAM.....there was ONE WORD that I hadn't really considered before. This man just anecdotally expounded on just this one word and it became clearer than I have ever seen it before and seemed to settle the matter in my mind once and for all. It's just like Ray said in his 'repentance' lecture, we repent in increments, and it seems like with each wave, we learn a little more and a little more. I guess I can't help it if I am the personality type who must always learn the hard way, kicking and screaming, (I account it to my German/Cherokee Indian Blood. lol) but I have accepted that is just the way God made me.....
