Pain now but Joy comes in the morning.

Words. Words. Words. Why is this the only way we can express ourselves. Why is it when I feel pain in my heart and sorrow in my soul that all I can say is wow. I wish I could express myself better than that. I wish that when it hurt that I could help others understand my pain. Your probably trying to figure out what happened huh? Tonight I had a really good conversation with one of my YoungLife kids and after an hour of talking in my car, my heart was shattered. I was spiritually in pain and there was nothing I could do about it. My soul long to help him and free him of the emotional abuse he was being subjected to. His pain was now my pain and I knew that I was on a spiritual battle now. A battle that God has already won! I know that God is in control and that there is nothing out there that cant be healed by my Lord. Leadership has really stretched me as a man and as a follower of Christ, But one thing remains that every night my heart breaks for the students for the kids that are abandoned broken and lost, For those that have to hear they are worthless and are bound by other peoples Words. But I know that this pain is the Fathers pain. The same pain He felt for us and came to Heal. I know now that He has called me to help those that are chained to be freed and I truly am honored that He has called someone like me to be a part of all of this. Lord Thank you. Because after this pain is healed I know there will be Joy in the morning.
