I was looking back over this blog for the past couple days and I thought, man this is depressing. The truth is that its been a hard few days. However, the thing is while I really don't understand why God is allowing me to go through all this...there is a purpose for it. I wish I knew what it was, but I think its something big. For all of you who have taken the time to come here and get depressed by my recent posts, thanks for putting up with me. I've had time with the Lord just in prayer and reading, and while I have no more answers then I did yesterday, I'm okay. God is always at work, and while I've been forced to let go of what I hold dear...its in better hands anyways.
Sometimes we aren't expected to understand God's purpose in us, we're just expected to yield to it when it comes about. I yield.

Read Psalm 136! "...for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever!"
Thanks for the comments. I agree with you that more churches are turning back to the truth of the Scriptures- but it seems there are so many more that preach a gospel of prosperity, rather than conveying that we will suffer as Christians. Which is a hard truth to swallow.
Thats why we have to be mindful of the churches we are in. I'm living proof that we suffer as Christians, but thats what makes us warriors...true warriors not the ones that are seen on tv.
I think I used a wrong choice of words when I used the word suffer. I've been through alot in life, even before my wife and I separated. However, to use the word "suffer" seems a bit off considering I've never been beaten for my faith or gone hungry for my faith. There seems to be more people worthy of using that terminology. I'm not sure how I fit, but I'm going with hardships when describing my story from now on, and we face hardships by our own fault or just by the world. Just figured I'd clarify myself a bit.
