I got slapped in the face for standing up for my sister.
I had to endure the words of how irresponsible I was.
Sometimes I really feel like a Nicole, but without the Chris with me.
Going through so much pressure and meeting the needs of those who has expectations on you, worrying on some things that were not meant to be worried, cautious of what the other party is feeling, being sensitive to avoid the look of disappointment, and going thru times where you'll just be ignored intentionally.
But God reminded me of a verse in the bible that says We're all earthen vessels that are breakable, but when pressures of the world come upon us, we won't crumble because God is the pressure inside of us pushing the world back.
We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed - always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.- 2 Corinthians 4:8-10 (NKJV)Without knowing it, I started crying really badly and I realised - I could never trade anything in the world for the bestest friend I have, Jesus Christ.
