It is amazing to me that I am sharing these thoughts as for so long I have been hiding them. <br /><br />I thank you for the prayers and you are so right about the comfort we get from being able to be honest with the Lord and tell Him anything. I would have given up long ago if not for His forgiveness, mercy, patience and unending love.AJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02035254939580576790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4084325040511749894.post-90837757073946370662010-04-06T14:37:16.250-04:002010-04-06T14:37:16.250-04:00"Passing thoughts" is a term that charac..."Passing thoughts" is a term that characterizes the way I feel so often and relate to what you said. It seems that no matter where I am or whatever I am seeing or hearing or participating in I have those passing thoughts that cause me to feel like almost an outsider. Like you wrote, taking the pictures, viewing the happy lives of others but never being able to fully identify with them because of the pain inside, the feeling of inadequacy, the inability to fully identify with them. "Walking behind" also indicates what we feel inside, that idea that we somehow aren't worthy to enjoy what they are enjoying, I've done that. <br /><br />The Lord Jesus hears your prayer, I pray that you will feel His love and His strength taking your hand, stilling the storm. At times like this it is such a comfort to tell Him how I feel, the disconnectedness with others, the anxiety, the feeling I am less than others, etc. May God give you joy today to know you are loved.<br /><br />Take good care my friend.stanwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07470558145823645718noreply@blogger.com
