I have allowed you to come to the edge of defeat and failure.
I have allowed you to be tested beyond what you thought you could bear.
I have taken you to the limits of your faith and belief so that you can see just how much you need Me.
It is those times that you have found that I have never forsaken you or left you,
that I was always there and was always near. What you feared was not there at all.
The thing you thought was going to take you under, you were able to rise above it.
The thing which has held you back, no longer exists.
What controlled you has been broken and cast away from you.
This is what the Lord says, "I have been preparing you and building you up for such a time as this.
I have positioned you and called you forth. What has taken place within you has been Me at work."
At times, you thought 'I cannot make it, this thing is too bad, GOD is unfair'.
You have weathered it all and have stood.
You have stood. You have learned resistance and how to endure.
You have learned what is of Me and what was of the flesh. It has not been easy, but quite hard. You did doubt, at times, if you would survive but you more than survived, you came through and have stood!
Testing is not easy because your whole being is pressed, twisted and stretched beyond your comfort zone.
Your very movements are restricted.
You feel boxed in and everything around you seems to be closed off .
You have found others did not understand you, much less did you understand yourself.
Confusion covered you and you felt alone. You wanted to hide and cover yourself.
You said, 'It is too much, GOD is too unfair'.
This is what the Lord says, "You have found that what you have been thinking is not true, but you have come forth refined as pure gold. You are not the same person that you were. You are becoming more like Me".

GOD
said following Him would not be easy. He said we will go through periods of long
suffering. He never put a time limit on the term "long suffering". Our timing is
not His timing and our ways are not His ways.
He has promised that even though it appear the bottom has fallen out, and your world appear to be upside down, all of these circumstances are going to work out in your favor and for your good.
GOD has promised this.
His Word will not return void.
