down and out

Have you ever been so down and out even your family didn't want to have anything to do with you???
Check out proverbs 19:7
When you're down on your luck, even your family avoids you—
   yes, even your best friends wish you'd get lost.
If they see you coming, they look the other way—
   out of sight, out of mind.

Have you ever been treated like this?  I have...the ex family...they avoid you...they keep things from you...you are the plague to them...they look the other way...they overlook what others do...out of sight out of mind...

I can't say enough.... it is all how you handle yourself in these times of adversity...think of Abe Lincoln...talk about the weight of the world on your shoulders...that man had it...the north hated him and the south hated him...he couldn't win...but he continued...God had given him a purpose...and we as a country are where we are now...because of things he did...

I have no family here...where I am now...I am alone...I don't have a clue where my life is going...but I am holding it steady...and being patient and quiet...and listening for the Lord...he may change my direction but he will not abandon me...I will persist...I will wait until God shows me the direction...so wait with me and we will see what happens!
