Oh how I want to run from this pain in my gut. I wake up and its still there, all day long it is with me. Everything in my flesh says to bury it, hide in TV, play a game, go shopping, distract yourself, do anything - but just stop attending to the ache.
But how can I do that? How could I abandon this need - just turn away and run from what God is calling me to do. This pain can be nothing in comparison to others, to what Jesus had to move into when He walked toward the cross.
God give me strength to keep opening myself to You. To keep praying into this burden for You. To keep praising You all the while. Help me to turn toward You and to not be afraid.
