Friend,
“Is it going to be like this forever?”
I know you’ve been asking that, and anybody in your situation would be. You thought when it first started feeling like this that it would be like other things you’ve had before:
Here and Gone.
But this one is:
Here and Lingering.
I’m sorry that this has been such a long season, and the light at the end of the tunnel can’t be seen yet.
But I want to be clear: It won’t be like this forever.
It will change. Rather you are dealing with grief, illness, depression, or being overwhelmed. It will look different, feel different, and sometimes even go away completely.
You will change. You will become different. I heard a preacher one time say “you can get bitter or you can get better,” and I want you to know that you have the choice of how you approach it, and I hope you choose to become better.
They say adversity makes you stronger, and I believe that you are already stronger than you know. You are already encouraging others more than you know. And you are already closer to the end than you know.
Love,
Aaron
P.S. Need prayer? I’d be honored to pray for you today. Just let me know.
Yes and Yes🙏🏻
