Once, I was called a "disappointment."
My friend, I sympathize!
It is unfortunate that my sympathy can only be expressed, and not given in whole, unadulterated by distance and body. I would simply give love to you. If I could I would like to give you a portion of my comfort in exchange for your suffering. What can I do, but pray?
Brother, I urge you. God has forgiven you, now forgive yourself. Remember, you are a new creation in Christ, the old has gone and the new has come! Your sins are done, your future is in Christ. Learn to rely on God, not on yourself; He says, "Come to me if you are weary! I will give you rest!" He is the good shepherd, he will lead you into comfort, and he is faithful to carry out his promises, though we are faithless! Brother, I urge you, stay within Christ's see.
Do not say that your past was better than now, for such thought does not come from wisdom! Ecclesiastes 7:10
This is the best I can do.
Love is expressed in sacrifice, always. Remember John 3:16? For God..loved... sent.. would not perish. Christ's love is filled with sacrifice. This love was bought so that you might be free; free from circumstances, tempests, turbulences, and every awkward movement in life. Be like Cephas, be rock, steady and firm in your faith.
This is not a farewell letter; these are merely words of encouragement. Christ's love for you remains infinite and unmarred, rest in it and rejoice! Do not be afraid to ask the Body of Christ; Ask me, for any help whatsoever, and I promise I will help to the limit of my ability, because, this is what my Lord commands me to do. It is not of inconvenience to me, but a great joy to help you in your struggle upwards. So, no need to apologize, brother. Be filled with the Holy Spirit and with the peace that transcends all understanding!
In Love of Christ,
Another Disappointment Revived by Jesus
