Slowly, but surely...
Now, a 'good' friend would just tell you, "Girl, I know you're feeling bad. I'm so sorry." And the friend would continue to try to console you. But a 'great' friend would remind you of the true person they know that you are.
The girl I know is a soldier. I mean this girl is so driven that she puts me to shame (and I'm all that and a bag of chips, so that's really saying something~smile). She knows what she wants and doesn't give up until she feels personal fulfillment. She has such a commanding presence that even the ambience of a room can be determined just by her attitude. She has.......it. Words cannot express how I feel about this person, because mere words won't suffice.
Don't feel bad because you're in a drought phase. Fresh rain is coming. What may be a 'bad season' to you is a 'good season' for God to reveal himself to you. I know this sounds so cliche. But, I know there is a reason for you to be going through this. I don't know why. We never know. All I know is that there is no mistake that I play a role in your life and because of that, all I can do as a child of God is to make sure that I fulfill my role in your life, not just because God has commanded me to do so, but because I love you.
I want you to do me a favor. I need you to read the story of Job. Read the book of Job in its entirety. It's 42 chapters, but it's worth it. I'll read it too. You're not in this alone, baby. If you hurt, I hurt. If you're happy, I'm happy. If you're.....hungry (just kiddin' with you; well, actually I'd probably be hungry too).
Now, there is one thing that you're going to have to do in order to get over this hump; you're going to have to forgive. I'm not talking about others. I'm talking about yourself. If you keep holding onto the burden(s) of the past, how do you expect for God to do his job in your life and make it all better? He can't do what you want him to do if you keep holding on. Let it go. Just let it go. I know it's hard, because you have so many questions. Why??? Because you wouldn't be here right now if it had not happened. You wouldn't be searching for a greater purpose. You wouldn't be empty, so that God can fill you up. You'd be the same person as before, with God in the passenger seat. God wants to drive, baby. He wants to lead you to a destination that you never thought existed. He wants to show you something, but he can't show it to you if you're still looking back. Move forward; regression can no longer be in your mindset. It's all about progression now. (Wow, I'm preaching to myself too.)
Go to the doctor please. I can't be having your beautiful head of hair falling out. Nah sir! I ain't havin' it! And don't feel bad if you need to go to some one-on-one therapy sessions too. Whatever you need to get you through this is necessary. And I'll back you 110%; just don't do no crazy shit. (You smiled, didn't you? There you go.)
As always, you're on my mind. I'm not giving up on you. Now, wipe your eyes and go read Job.
