For the future, you may have to make up your mind that you may have extended periods of not feeling much at all, times when‚ if you in fact feel anything, you may be feeling pretty rotten!
—When you'll not be able to go on your feelings at all, but will have to cling to the fact of His Word, that God still loves you and God still cares‚ and is expecting you to go on for Him‚ no matter what you feel like, and no matter how long you feel or don't feel like it!
You're going to have to learn to keep going even if you feel like a zombie or a robot just going through the motions, just doing what you're supposed to do because God says to do it!
You may have to keep going even when absolutely everything seems to have turned against you, just believing that truth will triumph in the end, and Jesus will be victorious.
You may just have to put on that "Fear Not" Scripture song tape and listen to it over and over and over until even if you can't think or make decisions‚ you will be able to just rest in Jesus' arms with those unbreakable promises going over and over in your mind and heart.
We are in a war, and if you aren't really grounded in the Word, and if you don't have the conviction that this is our calling to fight for the truth and uphold the standard of the Word and preach the warning message to people, then you're not going to be able to take it!
It's going to require a lot of sacrifice and it's going to be difficult and you have to be convinced that you've just got to do it and that this is the Lord's will for you, and that He intends for you to do it and that's His purpose for you and you've just got to fulfill it‚ no matter what!
