God Can Reach You

I was listening to “You Are I Am” by Mercyme and I felt the need to share something with y’all. There is a part in the song; I believe it’s the second verse where it says “I've been the one to believe that where I am you cannot reach!” This line made me tear up but also sparked some things I feel like someone reading this needs to hear. 

To start, if this is the first article you are reading of mine then I should inform you of a few things so you understand I’m not just writing meaningless things I know nothing about; that I have actually gone through some really hard times. Being only 15 I understand how that would be hard to believe but I've gone through my mom leaving me really young to suicide attempt and all the crap in between; self-harm, eating disorder, and living with a father who is sick most of the time. I’m not telling you these things for pity because honestly everything I went through helped me be who I am today and I’m still growing from my experiences. I’m telling you these things because I hope someone reading this can relate to me and take what I type here and realize it’s from my heart.

This line expresses something so deeply and shows something I and maybe you are struggling with. The line says “I've been the one to believe that where I am you cannot reach"

Do you feel like that you’re such a mess or you’re going through something so rough that God can’t touch or help you; feeling like the devil has such a strong hold on you that God can’t reach you? Well you’re wrong! No matter what situation you are in whether it’s a loss of a loved one, abuse, addiction, any tragedy He can help you out of! He will meet you exactly where you are. You don’t have to take another step alone because he will come right next to you and take your hand and walk with you every step of the way. He is there waiting with a hand out to help pull you up. You’ll stand on your feet again with the hand of your Father on your shoulder! He never leaves us and he will never fail you.

God looks and sees this amazing person. He sees someone with so much potential. Don’t you know who you are? You are more than your brokenness, you are more than your mistakes, you’re more than the choices you made, and more than the circumstance you’re in right now, So much more! You are a human being that lives and breathes, someone who was not made by accident, NO but made with love and compassion in mind! Someone who was made with amazing talents, passions, ability, and beauty! You have a purpose no one else can fulfill. Not only were you made with all this in mind but you have someone who died with you in mind! Jesus Christ our savior died with you in mind, yes You!

God is going to help you out of any situation you face. Grace can really change your heart!! Start with prayer. Pray to have strength in your circumstance; ask god to give you an abundance of faith in Him. That you can trust him and let Him have control in whatever you may face. Ask Him to show Himself or show His love to you! He will, I promise! When you need it most He will wrap you tight in love and peace! Pray for guidance and understanding! Try to see the good in your situation; there will always be a small bit that will help you a whole bunch later in life. If you can’t find anything, look again. Have you considered the possibility of coming out a stronger, braver, wiser person? You’re going to be, and that’s a huge step in another positive outcome which is forming a better relationship with Christ! If you lean on him and seek Him throughout the hard times you are forming an amazing trust with your Savior! Look how much progress you could make it or hope you could form in just saying “Hey God, Please Help me!” He truly is something extra special that is just an amazing thing to have in your life and to witness in others! He will reach to the ends of the earth to meet you exactly where you are at! Stop believing He can’t because if you let Him, He will be there within the next heart beat ready to help you every step you need to take up the stairs to His grace and love! He is incredible and will do incredible things, just wait! He is capable of more than you believe!!

“You’re the one who conquers giants. You’re the one who calls our kings. You shut the mouths of lions. You tell the dead to breath. You’re the one who walks through fire. You take the orphans hand. You are the one Messiah. You Are I Am!”  

God can do amazing things if you open up your heart and Let Love Flow!
