"Yet a time is coming
and has now come when the true worshipers will worship
the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the
kind of worshipers the Father seeks." - John 4:23

My Heavenly Daddy is healing
me from the inside out.

Transparency is Real.
Many times painful.

Daddy let me be secure in You only!

RUNNING ON EMPTY


Even though I may not have a lot to say in this post, I probably do just by saying I do not.

I feel my emotions are running on empty.

  2. Dearest, please be kind to yourself and give yourself a brake. Relaxing and recovering from the pain one went through is part of recovery too. HUGS

  3. Often when I most want to "speak" is when I go silent for it's when I most fear making myself vulnerable. Also, I think we sometimes become emotionally drained where it seems we can't feel anymore. Please don't let it distress you too terribly.

  6. This is understandable. Sometimes the body, mind and soul needs to reguivinate, especially when experiencing traumatic events. Take it easy if you can. This is perfectly normal. Your not alone in this.

  7. Brain numbing exhaustion. This is when the body and mind shut down and take time to build up reserves again. Take the time out to just be, and in time , the reserves will be back and you can then continue.
    Hugs

    Yes, you do. Take the time you need for you. You work so hard and give so much.

  16. "Everyone I know, everywhere I go
    People need some reason to believe
    I dont know about anyone but me
    If it takes all night, that'll be all right
    If I can get you to smile before I leave

    Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
    I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels
    I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through
    Looking into their eyes I see them running too

    Running on - running on empty
    Running on - running blind
    Running on - running into the sun
    But Im running behind" - Jackson Browne

  17. It sounds like you've had a rough couple of weeks. Anger in particular can be draining. I wish you a healing and energizing weekend!

    Hello,

    I am not meaning to just throw scripture at you and say…be comforted…I just want you to feel the love of the Lord.

    I truly want to be of comfort...but am not sure how to be.

    Romans 12:15
    Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.


    Psalm 121
    I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

    My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

    He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

    Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

    The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

    The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

    The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

    The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

    ♥Hope

  19. Here's something for you:

    The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul ... Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for you are with me, your rod and staff comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever" (Psalm 23).

  20. I pray that God will pick you up, and fill you to overflowing sweetie.

  21. There's always a hand to help you out of the deepest pit. No pit is so deep that God cannot rescue you from.

    No matter the pain your experiencing now if you keep trusting God He will get you through.

    Rest not only in sleep, but in Him.

    JBR,
    You might feel that your emotions are empty, but your support is so full! Let all of us feel for you, share emotional support for you, until you get yours back.

    I am so sorry, tho that you are experiencing this, it is so difficult and draining. And, yes, you said a lot.
