Reality

How often are we 'real' with ourselves? For me, it's often never. Who wants to sit down and look into what's going on with their life? Why do we want to think or talk about our pain, our suffering, when it's seemingly so much easier to pretend everything is okay?

When we are realistic with our lives it makes us stronger in Christ because Christ is strongest in our weakness. He builds us up. Therefore, do not be afraid to be real with your life, with pain, with suffering, heartache and more. Reognize it, talk about it with someone. You do not have to tell every person you meet your life story and the pains you suffer, but you should find those people who you can come to with your problems. In reality, it is not healthy to hold in those emotions either. We need to continue to recognize our weakness and let Christ be our strength in them. We, as Christians and followers of Christ, need to be able to unite our pain and our suffering to Christ our King so He can be our strength, our rock on which we stand firm.

Who are you?
What's your story?
Where do you struggle?

Keep praying.
God bless!

In Jesus&Mary,
