Lord, thank You for the unbearable days—
Those sleepless nights when I cried myself to sleep, overthought things, created scenarios and problems in my head that weren’t even there yet, and spent too much time worrying about making ends meet—thank You for calming the chaos in my thoughts and the heaviness in my heart. Thank You for the brand-new day that follows each of those terrible nights. It reminds me that it was just a phase, and it shall pass. Like the night—just a few hours after it fades, the sun rises again.
Lord, thank You for the unbearable days—
Those dark days when my chest felt heavy and tight, when I shook with fear, faced rejection, encountered disappointment, and confronted endings. Thank You for saving me from the things I was blinded to. Things could be far worse now if not for You.
Lord, thank You for the unbearable days—
Those rocky roads, those times when I had to keep myself from tripping, when I almost lost focus on where I should go, and when I felt like I couldn’t continue. Thank You for every stumble. I know it is You guiding me away from paths that would hurt me, saving my hard-headed self once again.
Lord, thank You for the unbearable days—
Those days when I was shattered, when I fought with myself, when it felt like it was all over, when I blamed myself, and when I allowed others to hurt me, leading to my brokenness. Thank You for those moments when I felt helpless because You made me realize that the only help I truly need to seek is You.
Lord, thank You for the unbearable days—
Those days of facing rejection, feeling ashamed, believing I wasn’t good enough, and wanting to scream. Thank You for the rejections, because they made me realize that “no” isn’t You turning me down, but rather You redirecting me to Your “yes.”
Lord, thank You for the unbearable days—
Those days of confusion, feeling stuck, losing interest, and being torn between choices. Thank You for those moments when I had to close my eyes because I didn’t know what to do. You made me realize that even in my confusion, You are working in me, molding me into the person You want me to be.
Lord, thank You for the honesty in every unbearable day You allowed me to go through. Thank You for the lessons behind the scars, the assurance behind my tears, the redirection behind my confusion, and the “yes” behind every “no.”
Lord, thank You—
Thank You for making the unbearable bearable. 🤍
