Learn to trust God and follow God's Word, in the middle of your mess, and he can turn your mess into a message. "Your word is a lamp to my foot, and a light to my roadway" (Psalm 119:105).
When life gets messy, it is natural for us to get stressed, angry, or bitter, especially when life takes a turn we didn't expect--the loss of a loved one, being widowed with small children, going through a divorce, cancer, family overcome with drugs and alcohol, and the death of a dream.
The unexpected mess has happened in my life many times. But I've learned how to turn to God for direction. God wants to sharpen us, mold us. He wants us to see a side of himself that we haven't seen yet. He wants a relationship with us, totally dependent upon him. And he wants others to see the amazing things he can do in our lives when we trust him with the mess.
No matter how much pain, disappointment, or situation that placed you in that deep dark place in your life, there is a way to come into the light of healing and restoration. By applying God's Word, you can turn your mess, your tests, and your trials into a beautiful message, testimonies, triumph, and victory.
This book will show the turning point in my life that started my climb out of darkness. I am starting at the point of the deepest darkness I was living in, in order to fully explain what drove me to the point of recognizing I could no longer live like this and getting help. The help I found was applying God's Word to my life and listening to the Holy Spirit and moving my feet when I was led to.
This book is for anyone who is struggling in any area of their life. You will learn what I have learned--that calling on Jesus is the only way to get through, when you are in the middle of a big ol' mess. The Bible has a clear plan and instructions, and you too can make it through. Reading God's Word, the Bible, and following his plan is an amazing journey to true peace, happiness, and freedom.
