Question:

How do you get through the day...?

when it feels like your heart & stomach have been carved out...when it's hard to take a breath...when you can't eat or sleep and the stress & the sadness are unbearable & it feels like the ground is crumbling beneath your feet & you're stuck at work so you don't even have the luxury of being able to curl into a ball & cry...?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: what i would do is get off work for a day
and go home and pray. what you need is
time for yourself to reflect and analyze whatever
problems you have. remember what does not kill
you only makes you stronger.
p.s. this might be a divine test and GOD is only
testing your strength of character and your
courage with which you confront your everyday
problems. read the bible or (ir your not religious)
do something else that makes you forget the days
tribulation. The following poem might help.
"Footprints"
One night a man had a dream.

He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the LORD.

Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.

Each scene, he notices two sets of footprints in the sand; one belonging to him , and the other to the LORD.


When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints.

He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life.


This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it.

"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow you, you??d walk with me all the way.

But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints.

I don??t understand why when I needed you most you would leave me.


The LORD replied, "My precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you." Author unknown
