In those hard to make it through moments, in trials, tribulations, we feel alone. Isolated. Forgotten.
That is a lie. That’s what the enemy of our souls wants us to believe. Stranded. Stuck. ALONE.
We are never alone. Not only are Yahweh and Yahushua with us, but there are other sisters out there that have gone through similar (if not the same) struggles as we are going through.
…but I don’t want to burden anyone with my troubles…
It’s not a burden. That is another lie. The enemy of our souls (the Accuser of the brethren) will do anything to make us feel isolate. Alone. Lonely. Without support. Forgotten.
Little do we realize that we have a support group waiting for us, always. Yahweh. Yahushua. Yah’s Word. Sisters. Prayer warriors. We are never alone.
…I feel I’m being weak by sharing my troubles…
It’s a sign of strength to reach out and share. The Accuser wants us to feel the threat of being weak so that we will remain separated from those who can help us get out of our ruts. Our thoughts. Our beliefs about ourselves.
Weakness can be confused with vulnerability. To share our troubles makes us vulnerable, not weak. Talk to a sister you can trust, who has integrity. Read the psalms, David felt vulnerable many times. He poured his heart out to Yahweh. Jeremiah felt vulnerable a lot too. Abigail felt vulnerable when she found out what her husband Nabal had done.
Vulnerability can be difficult to venture through, but there are sisters who you know you can trust.
…I don’t want my life to be publicized for people to make their comments…
Trusted sisters don’t talk. Trusted sisters keep confidence. Trusted sisters pray. Trusted sisters counsel. Trusted sisters. That’s who you need to seek out.
…I can handle this myself, really…
If that’s the case, why the need for fellowship and community? Why the need for communication? Don’t let the Accuser fool you into thinking that. It’s one more step deeper into the isolation, and you are doing it yourself.
Remember, Yahweh and Yahushua are there, waiting for you to invite Them into your life. They are respecting your free choice. There are sisters who will help, but only if they know you need to the support.
It’s up to you to reach out. Speak up. Ask.
You are never alone in this….

It’s a struggle for me sometimes to realize that I’m not a burden to my brothers and sisters and that they desire to help me and others anyway possible, it’s my responsibility though to swallow remove my pride and reach out for help and ask for prayers.
Something I’m definitely not accustomed to doing, I’ve never had like minded people to reach out to before and when I have in the past I’ve been told “just deal with it or suck it up” or shunned or rejected, I still struggle to a degree with the rejection as this has been from childhood and I’m slowly learning that this is from the enemy.
I’m learning to reach out to the wonderful people I met at Sukkot the body of Messiah to share my burdens with and ask for prayers.
Someday soon Yah willing I will share my testimony.
Shalom and YAH’S blessings
