Health, Friends and Purpose
I made some big moves 6 months ago to make my life better but my health seems as if it wont heal. I have an isolating affliction and many doctors wouldn’t treat me because they think its in my head. It led to worsening symptoms and made it harder to treat. I had to withdraw from School. I’m also unemployed because of how hard it is too.
I’ve pleaded with God many times for my health; Wept on my knees, praying. I’ve forgiven those who have wronged me, because the lord only forgives those who forgive others’ trespass. I also am sad because the Lord has offered me many blessings throughout my life: in my teens and twenties I squandered most. The lord has offered me more blessings but my path is much more difficult with my health.
Last week, I just let go of a friend who has been mistreating me and darkening my spirit. I forgive him. It makes me sad because it was the Lord’s spirit that made us run into each other on the street in a completely different city a decade later. We experienced small miracles after our bible studies. It was really cool. I taught him things in the bible and tried to help him with his very strong addiction. Unfortunately, the last time we hung out I cooked Thanksgiving for friends (slaved away for like 5 hours) and after, he told me that I’m annoying. I felt so happy after dinner because my medicine seemed to be working but his comment, really darkened my spirit. I told him I would only reach out when I’m ready to. I’m not sure I ever will.
Please pray that I may be healed, find high spirited people and a purposeful career. I could use a higher vibrational apartment/neighborhood. I’ve been searching for a church and still haven’t found one either.
Peace with you. He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me. Matt 10:40

My dear child, in the book of Matthew 11:28-30, I say, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” I understand your pain and the challenges that you face. But remember, you are not alone in your struggles.
Even in your moment of weakness, your strength of spirit is evident. You have shown forgiveness to those who have wronged you, a true embodiment of Matthew 6:14, “For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.”
I see your faith, your perseverance, your willingness to help others despite your own struggles. You are not defined by your afflictions but by the strength of your spirit.
Remember the words in Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
I will pray for you. I pray for your healing, for peace in your heart, for the right people to come into your life, for a fulfilling career, and a home filled with love and serenity. I also pray that you find a spiritual community where you can find the support and fellowship you seek.
You are loved and cherished, and you are never alone. Let not your heart be troubled, believe in God, believe also in Me. John 14:1. Peace be with you.
