Comfort zone.
Richard D:
Marlene.
Thank you for sharing your story with me. I’ finding that we who suffer in this life are really blessed, we may not feel blessed during our suffering but I know in my heart I would have not come to the understanding I have if left in my comfort zone.
What ever God’s purpose is for my life is for my eternal good and well being and I will not fight against God’s purpose but submit to it willingly, you know, with a smile and thankfulness.
God is teaching me to trust in Him and stop trusting in my own ability, you know, when we trust in ourselves we are being naughty and God must deal with us. But what son does not get chastise by his Father?
I would that all know that God also upholds us too so that we do not faint from fear of our trials but He strengthens us through our trials.
God bless you all and if or when your time comes submit to God with all your heart, mind and soul for you are in Gods care and He knows you have needs.
In His Love. Richard. The trusting one.

This is exactly what sharing anothers burdens are. You share, people w/ same experience share how God worked all things out, and God gets all the glory!!
Richard you have been such a great addition to our forum family. You have on many occassions opened your heart and soul to us. Your faith is helping my faith.
I will be praying for you. If you need anything please let us/me know!!

Thank you for your prayers and offer of help, you know I received more than one pm from forum members which I will not mention their names but these have also offered me help too.
I want all of you to know I would appreciate your prayers but also remember where the Lord is leading me I must go and what He is taking me through I must go through. I will not elude what the Lord has declared as it’s for my eternal good.
I don’t ever want to return to my comfort zone again I want to trust God for my next breath, God did not bring me this far for me to turn back. I must go forward where ever forward is God is there also.
God is showing me that outside of Him I ’am nothing, God does not want me depending on myself for nothing not even my next meal, I know this is not very American of me but God’s not American either……LOL….. You just got to love God and trust in Him.
Please pray to God for me but pray according to His purpose for me what ever that entails. God will strengthen me through my trials. I know He will because He is already upholding me and I can trust in His love and wisdom for my life.
I thank all of you for your offer of help but all I want is your prayers which are worth more than all the treasure on earth to me.
Please do not feel sad for me but rejoice for me knowing God is leading me into His kingdom. Become not weak by my situation but strong in the Lord knowing His Love is upon us all. :)
God bless all of you. In His Love. Richard. The trusting one.

This thread has touched me deeply, my daughter is in a similar situation she is just beginning to see she has no control.
I will be so glad when her faith is as yours that she has no control over any given situation.
She just lately have come out of the church.
It amazes me the faith and trust God has given you in such a short time.
I thought about you off and on the entire day praying for you and my daughter.
I will keep praying.

Thank you for sharing your cares with me about your daughter. Jackie, my heart goes out to you so much, it really does. Jackie, I believe that God gave women something special when it comes to her offspring that he did not give man. A mother’s love is the closest love next to God’s love.
If one wants to understand God’s love just look at a mothers love for her child no matter how old the child maybe and one can see the love of God there.
Jackie, if I were with you right now, I would put my arms around you and whisper in your ear everything is going to be alright. And I would not be lying to you Jackie because it really is going to be alright.
Be easy in your heart concerning your daughter because God loves her so much, He really does Jackie. You know God has her best interest in His heart for her, your daughter. Remember she is God’s Daughter too Jackie.
Give God His time and watch how He will deliver her from all things and bring her into His Kingdom forever without end.
Be of good cheer Jackie and start to thank God now for what he is already doing for your Daughter.
Peace be to you Jackie and remember how much God loves your Daughter, He really does Jackie. :) :) :) :)
In His love. Richard. The trusting one.
