Can God Hear Me?

Scripture:
“God is our refuge and strength a very present help in trouble therefore we will not fear.”- Psalm 46 1-2

Reflection:
In 2013 and 2016 my kidney’s were failing. I got a transplant however in 2021 that failed too. It’s annoying and frustrating because the doctors had no idea why they were failing. So, I started dialysis in November of 2021 and by February of 2022 I was over it. At that point I hated everything about it, the way it made me feel during and after and just how time consuming it is. I remember praying and asking God how much longer but like most time when I pray, I got no response. Weeks went by and I became depress. I didn’t want to go nowhere and I didn’t want to do anything. I worked at a daycare and one day when I was at work my manager put me in the toddler 4 classroom which I thought was weird cause I’m usually with the infants and one- two-year-old. This particular day I was with the 4 year olds. I remember cleaning up and this little boy came up to me and said some random words I looked up at him and said huh? Then he yelled your necessary! When he said that I felt the tears coming because I honestly didn’t want to keep going, I wanted to give up because I felt like life shouldn’t be this hard. When this little boy said that to me it gave me hope that God does hear me and he see everything. I felt purposeless and God used him to remind me that I have purpose and I’m here for a reason.

Prayer:
Dear heavenly Father thank you for allowing us to make it this far in the year I pray that you would continue to be with us especially during the holiday season. Some people lost their love ones or could be all alone during this time. I pray that your love will find them and they will feel your love. I pray that anyone who is struggling with their purpose or with just the will to keep going you will send them someone like you did for me in Jesus name amen.
