Bitter Towards God?

Have you ever found yourself bitter towards God? Bitter means angry, hurt, or resentful because of one's bad experiences or a sense of unjust treatment. Maybe you are feeling the way you are towards GOD because you might have been molested or rape, you lost a dear loved one, finances are running low, you were struck with an illness, your house is going through foreclosure, whatever the case may be, God wanted me to tell you that despite how you feel about Him; He still loves you and wants you! These emotions and feelings that you have are temporary compared to eternity when you accept Jesus as your only Lord and Savior! God has a big plan for your life and despite of all the unfair happenings that happened to you and how you may feel like you live in misfortune; GOD wants you to see otherwise. He wants you to know that He can heal your broken heart, that He can turn your worst situation around and make it work out for your good. He wants you stop buying into the lies of Satan that GOD doesn't care about what you are going through. For God is not blind nor is he death! He sees and knows all!!He wants to stretch your faith in Him! He wants you to know that He is a reliable God. You can find comfort in Christ.

I can tell you from personal experience that this walk with Christ isn't easy. There are plenty of times I've been bitter towards God but He kept softening my heart towards Him while saved. The traumatic events that happened in my life from childhood until now made me grow in purpose because of all the pain I've experienced. I will never know why some things happened to me but I refuse to live in pity. Yes, I have my sad and bad days...this life isn't fair but GOD is. He is a a just God who is sovereign. He designed me with purpose from my mother's womb! He knew what would come my way and how I would be diagnosed with a mental illness at 16 but He also sealed me with His blood to always love and protect me until eternity. He saw the many nights I cried about having a mental illness, He cared about my feelings, He was with me during every manic episode and depression and was with me in the mental hospital. He kept me. He stretched my faith in Him for sure and continues to do so. HE taught me how healing is a process and daily reminding me how I won't fully arrive until I meet Christ. God used my experience of being disabled to mold my heart to be like His and He's continuing to do so.

Be encouraged my friend, God wants your whole heart. Don't turn your back on Him, not now! Not ever! He's a good good Father and an excellent friend. He loves you!!

Love,

My Story:Living with a Mental Illness

Hello lovelies!! Am I the only one that didn't find out that May is mental health awareness month until towards the end?! When I saw it posted on a girl page, I immediately thought I have to blog my story and tell my readers that I've battled living with a mental illness. Since I found out maybe a couple of weeks ago about it being mental health awareness month, I was so full of different emotions, for this is still a sensitive area for me. Disclaimer: I am not an expert, I do not have all the answers concerning mental illness; I always advise doing your own research. However, I will share my experiences and what it was like living with a mental illness and being a Christian. Any negative comments will be deleted. There is someone out there looking for a story of hope and your remarks can make a person feel rejected and want to be isolated. I'm an aspiring mental health advocate and my hope is to bring people to Jesus. Few facts from National Alliance on Mental ...

7 years since my last hospitalization in psychiatric care

Hey Loves, In the month of July, I shared on my Social Media my experiences with Bipolar and Dating, Mental Health and Education, and Mental Health and Ministry. I did Instastory posts on Instagram @sheree.p.braswell sharing my journey because I am not ready to blog or do a Youtube video fully about it but prayerfully one day I will. But I did want to write a blogpost about how it's been 7 years since my last hospitalization in psychiatric care! I've had four hospitalizations and ever since my last one in 2014, I realized that something was truly wrong with me that I had no control over. That I did have a mental illness and I needed to take care of my mental health. I've learned taking care of your mental health should be a priority just like your physical health should be and that it is just as important. I had to learn there is no shame in having a mental illness and I had to unlearn the myths and let go of the stigma around it. I had my id...

Why I Checked Myself In...

Photo credit: VeryWell Mind Hey Loves, First, Happy NEW Year! lol It's been a while since I've blogged. The last time I blogged, I wrote about "If you love me, don't say the word "CRAZY"! I shared in that blogpost intimate experiences of me experiencing Bipolar Disorder with Psychosis (out of touch with reality). I am glad that it touched and informed those who read it but I felt I should wait and share those details in my bipolar memoir in the near future. So instead, I thought I would share more on why I checked myself in... In 2021, I went through many losses and changes. Even with making changes to my health, eating right and exercising felt great and was glad to get some things in order but there were a lot of stressors that caused my mental health to turn for the worst. I experienced anxiety to the extreme. With both conditions, Bipolar Disorder and PCOS, you can experience severe anxiety and depression. It was so hard to know which one was working ag...

"Why I Chose to Get My Associates Degree Instead of my Bachelors this Year?"

Graduation Day Saturday, May 6, 2017 Hello loves! I'm so excited to announce that I graduated from Schoolcraft College with my Associates Degree in Communications with a 3.81 average!!!!! :) God is so faithful!!! It was nothing but God that pulled me through! I am so ever grateful for the love and support from family and friends that came through for me by their encouragement, prayers, and financially, as a gift for graduation...it means a ton to me (kisses and hugs to all of you). Before and after I graduated, I got asked a lot by people, family and friends, "what's next"? But before I get into that, I want to answer the question that's in the title of this blog-post! I know some may have wondered, that are my Facebook friends like, "Didn't she used to go to Wayne State? What happened?" Well, yes I did go to Wayne State University in Detroit, Mi and a lot happened. After having two nervous break downs within 8 mon...

7 years of being Single and What I’ve Learned....

Photo cred: Hill Media Group Hey lovelies! Happy New Year! So much has happened since I’ve last blogged on here. I received a grant from Detroit Wayne Mental Health Authority to advance my mental health advocacy, did a mental health first aid training for adults at my church, volunteered at Children’s Hospital with the hematology and oncology department, got accepted to Madonna University for my bachelors. Now i am currently working on a self esteem short book for young women. These past 7 months have been a time of pruning, getting closer to the Lord and strategizing. There were definitely some up and down moments but I’m so glad i made it!! Now that i updated you, the Lord really laid on my heart to blog before Valentine’s Day things I’ve learned in my 7 year time of being single. By the way I love how 7 is for completion! Woohoo ! So here it go: Timing is everything . I learned that at times I wanted a relationship so badly but God was showing me ...
