child, look up

​I feel distant from the LORD!
I don’t like it. I have been here before.
Typically and more often than not, I feel close to GOD. HE is in the middle, the beginning and the end of my days.
However over the last several days, it feels as if I am disconnected.
I know it’s a lie. Feelings are not fact. And feeling disconnected is a lie.
Nonetheless, it is distressing.
So, what am I to do?
First! I need to rest in the promise that GOD will never forsake me or leave me!
Second! Get real! Tell my FATHER exactly what I am experiencing. Ask for help. Pray!
Third! Worship! Remember and speak grace, strength and the love of the LORD. Remember GOD surrounds me (even when I don’t “feel” it).
I choose to remember the promises of the LORD and speak truth! Get out from under the lies swirling about my brain.
My FATHER reassures me: “It is the LORD who goes before you. HE will be with you; HE will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” (Deuteronomy 31:6)
FATHER, I need YOU! I feel lost.
Child, Look up! I’M all around you.
Child, Look up! I have promised never to leave you! Hold onto MY promises.
Child, look up! Seek ME, and voila! I am right there!!
#ThankYOUJESUS ❤️
