Do not be afraid...

Just think, you're not here by chance, but by God's choosing. His hand formed you and made you the person you are. He compares you to no one else - you are one of a kind. You lack nothing that His grace can't give you. He has allowed you to be here at this time in history to fulfill His special purpose for this generation. ~ Roy Lessin

Jesus, will I choose to be doubtful or be devoted?

It's a tough choice, this one.
I wish to be devoted but right now, I am doubtful. The feelings of doubt have turned to feelings of betrayal, and these are overwhelming. So much so that they are putting a great distance between you and I. Your words are harsh and unyielding; they are words that I don't wish to hear right now. But Lord, as is always the case, I know that your words are true. It is I myself that wants to run away from the truth; it is I myself who doesn't want to do the things that I know I should do. But Lord, I am weak. Yet I want to be in control. I have been doing all the things that should and rightly lead to the expected results. But look! You have shown me that You alone are Sovereign.
I need to hide in a deep dark place where no one can see my tears and the turmoil in my heart.
Lord, will you please wait for me while I try to pick up the broken pieces of my heart? I don't know how long it will take though. Will you still wait for me, please? I think I will have many questions for you along the way: will you please hear me out and give some answers? I think I will many complaints and lamentations against you. Will you receive them and not chide me for my foolishness?
I am so torn, Lord. I don't feel loved, Lord. It is disheartening, and discouraging.
Lord, are you reading this?
