Hey everyone!
So life can suck sometimes and I have been trying my very best to stay positive throughout all of the issues that arise in my life. But alas, it isn't always that simple. I know that God has everything under control and I can count on Him when it comes to anything but remembering that in times of trouble and trials is a hard and challenging task.
I was sitting in church the other night and the sermon was on how some people get stuck in a stage of their life that is tough. And most of the time the reason why they are stuck is because they forget to thank God for the things that they DO have and to thank Him throughout that trial and season of their life. Therefore I have been consciously trying to praise God through the trials and tribulations in my life! Thins may be tough but I have it a lot better than so many people and I have so many blessings to be thankful for!
I want to share this Psalm with you cause it is something that brought me peace and understanding in this time of my life.
"Oh Lord, hear my prayer, listen to my cry for mercy, in your faithfulness and righteousness come to my relief. Do not bring your servant into judgment for no one living is righteous before You. The enemy pursues me, he crushes me to the ground, he makes me dwell in darkness like those long dead. So my spirit glows faint within me, my heart within me is dismayed. Answer me quickly, o Lord, my spirit fails. Do not hide yourself from me or I will be like those who go down to the pit. Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my spirit."
Psalm 144:1-4 & 7-8
I hope that if you are reading this then somehow this will also bring you comfort. God is always with us and has a plan for our lives! And He is never closer than when we are struggling and need His help :)
I am thankful for... Family, My dog, Munchkin Land, A Simple Wish, Kylene, Nick, Love, Gods comfort, Peace, Understanding, Theatre, Music, School, my house, time with my entire family and so many more things but I wont list them all!
