Sometimes it’s Hard to be Different

It’s hard to need to eat different things than other people.

It’s hard to hear that you might have to change your diet again.

It’s hard dealing with an invisible and sometimes visible disease.

It’s hard to be struggling through it alone.

It is hard when you are tired a lot of the time and have very little energy.

Life is hard sometimes.

It’s hard to explain a disease to other people when they don’t understand the weight of it.

It’s hard to feel parts of your body are fighting against you and not for your good.

Sometimes it’s hard to see the pain that other people are facing and knowing there is nothing you can do to help.

It’s hard to feel like reaching out to someone but not wanting to at the same time.

It’s hard to feel like you are always initiating plans with others.

It’s hard to be a Christian sometimes when the world is a broken mess and people criticize your beliefs.

It’s hard to love or like people when they make you frustrated time and time again.

It’s hard to live in this world when you see sin and destruction everywhere.

Jesus never said it would be easy to be different. He actually said we will face trials.

These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world. Matthew 7:24-25

But life is still hard.

God, it’s in your hands but this all still hurts.
