Day Thirty-Two.
Verses: "'Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer. From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.'"
Psalm 61:1-4
Hey everyone. I am so sorry I haven't posted this past week. I know Easter is this weekend but honestly I got some pretty bad news from the doctor that has made me feel really down. On Friday of last week I saw another doctor, they diagnosed me rheumatoid arthritis, and they won't treat me. That means I have been to six doctors who diagnosed me but won't treat me. I feel pretty defeated. I don't know what to do next. I am still in so much pain and getting diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis is like a kick in the stomach. I do now that now more than ever, I need God to take refuge in.
Maybe right now, you are really struggling. Maybe you have been diagnosed with an illness and like me, you just don't know what to do next. What I do know is: no matter what you are struggling with you can always go and take refuge in God.
Remember that God is always with you and will help you. He loves you so much and just wants to be there for you.
"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."
Psalm 34:18
If you are broken-hearted, God will help you. If you are crushing in spirit, God will save you. If you are depressed, God will give you hope. If you need safety, God will give you refuge.

No matter what you are facing: you can always come running into God's arms. God will rejoice in you coming home to Him. God will give you everything you could ever need. All you have to do, is run to Him.
He is waiting there for you. He can't wait to see you.
Prayer:
Dear God,
I am really struggling and I need your help. I am coming home and I am running into your arms. Please grab my hand and be close to me. Please bless me with your peace, rest, hope, love, guidance, grace, and everything I need. Just wrap me in your arms Lord. I want to be close to you.
I thank you for all my many blessings and for Your Son.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!

The Kodoku Game
In Japanese folklore, there once existed an ancient technique among alchemists for harvesting the strongest poison known to man. A poison so vicious, so horrendous, that a single drop could incapacitate an entire nation of humans, several times over. A poison so intense that a single drop could turn the tides of a war on its head. As potent as it appeared however, this poison could be harvested from the blood of a single insect alone- an insect the alchemist’s called the ‘Kodoku’. As lucrative as was attaining this poison however, the problem lied in identifying this insect- its appearance, shape and size changed from region to region and from continent to continent. Sometimes it took the appearance of a ladybug and other times a horned-beetle. In order to determine the identity of this special insect the alchemists came up with an ingenious method. They created an impregnable jar of clay out of the best sandstone they could find and placed hundreds of different insects into the same jar. The jar was made with such great mastery that it allowed no insects to escape and allowed no objects to enter. The laws of nature dictated that the insects would remain together in the jar forever. However, it turned out that as time went on, the insects’ hunger for food and power caused them to turn against each other- one insect ate another until only one remained. This sole insect contained a poison that far surpassed that of all the others and became stronger as it ate more and more insects. The alchemists at this point had succeeded in identifying the Kodoku and could extract it’s poison as long as they continued to feed it regularly. Although this folklore ends here, the actual story does not. One day, as the alchemists cheered in joy of having identified the Kodoku they so eagerly wanted, they forgot to close the lid on the very jar that was considered to be completely impregnable. This small gap was just large enough for the Kodoku inside to crawl out. Famished from not having been fed for weeks, the Kodoku ended up eating the very alchemists that nourished its growth until not even the bones remained. Yet, the Kodoku’s hunger didn’t seem to subside in the slightest. So it traveled to the next village and began eating whatever it could find there. Its poison made it unparalleled in strength and slowly but surely it began to dwindle down the population of the entire city. Yet its hunger only continued to grow. So it traveled to the next city over and ate all it could there. Very soon, the Kodoku couldn’t find any more food to eat. There was no one left to eat and no one left to spectate. So it stood there, by itself pondering what possibly was left to eat that could satiate its hunger. But there was one thing left that Kodoku realized it had never eaten. Itself.
