I am struggling, Lord. This Lent is pulling at my heart. I am weeding it as we have been talking about and my heart is so tender. When I pray, the tears come and my breath catches in my throat. My God Goggles see so much beauty and goodness and tragedy of this earthly life. It is so hard. I have learned something that we hear all the time: “Jesus knows what it is to be human.” He walked this life full of beauty and tragedy soaked in temptation. I get it. The closer my heart joins to Jesus, the more it hurts for humanity and how the temptations are ruthless and unrelenting. Watching the children of God struggling every day when the answer is so apparent. My God Goggles are allowing me to be in our Savior’s heart and the pain is unbearable because He loves us so much. Please pray with me when you read this, “God, please turn your children back to You. Let me love like You. Lord, use me.”
