You said it right daughter of zion! Our expectations can never be cut off and affliction shall not rise up a second time. It is indeed a time to really hold God by his words.
Jacob said, I will not let you go until you bless me I'm a living testimony to that. My dedication to Christ is as a result of a situation similar to this. I think I'll write a post on it soon.

Thanks for such encouraging words from your heart to a needy sister. What I desire the most is the healing anointing to help people in such situations. My heart bleeds each time I see someone suffering from affliction.😭
