Unblock Me

Sometimes life is like a never ending game of unblock me.  Have you seen that game?  It's addictive.  You move blocks around in an attempt to free the red one.  That's life.

As each new challenge (board) comes, you are faced with a new pattern of obstacles in your way.  Wrong turns get your further entrenched.  You move things around and try to get the red block out, but it seems impossible.  Some boards (problems) are easy and you see the solution right away.  But some bog you down and you just cannot see a way out.

The problem comes when more than one board loads at once.  You try to solve one at a time, but  the sheer volume causes a shut down.  When you have too many to solve, you cannot find a way out.

That's life right now.  I am stuck in a game of unblock me with about a dozen impossible to solve boards.  I am overwhelmed.  I am trying to tackle one at a time, but several are screaming at me at once.

  1. Praying for wisdom... for discernment... to know which one to work on first... eat that elephant one bite at a time...I cannot begin to understand all you face so I hesitate to say anything at all, that it might sound trite and uncaring... I know you are going through much... Praying for you...

  3. Know that I'm continuing to pray!
    Psalms 62:5-8 My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him. He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved. In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.

  4. Paul's sentences can be really long at times...didn't want to split this one up. Know that I'm here praying!
    Ephesians 3:14-21 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

  5. These verses contain the reason why we have the hope of life to come. Praying!!!!
    Ephesians 1:17-20 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places...

  6. Know that I'm always here praying!
    Romans 8:35, 37-39 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?...Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

  7. The Lord will always be there to get you through whatever you have to face. Praying!
    2 Corinthians 12:9-10 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

  8. Hope everything's okay there!
    Our hope is in the Lord! Praying!
    Romans 15:4, 13 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. (13) Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
