I've always believed that it's not WHAT we go through, but HOW we go through it... with or without God.

It does seem that it become harder to realize our faith if we are traumatized, though. But God is still there.
God doesn't upbraid us for asking for knowledge nor wisdom... He is gracious to give us more grace and help when we ask.

I pray that He will reach you and comfort you in all that you are enduring.
Thanks for the Soul food suggestion, I didn't even know that there was something like that. I haven't got the chance to explore.

My life has never been easy but I always had faith that God would protect me and take care of me. I came to the realization because he gives us free will it leads into other things that can happen. We mess up, we got to live with the after all result.

You have some great points that you have shared. Thanks!!
With the whole thing you said about how we go threw things. I shut God out of my life after what had happen. He probably could have saved me from all the pain, I had sooner but I shut the front door on him and said leave and never come back.

Thanks for replying!!
