I haven't posted very much lately. Life has thrown me a few obstacles in the last few months and sadly I let it consume my life. What a waste. One of the many lessons learned through this little trial is that you can not let the choices of others ruin your life. There are always two sides to a story but most will listen to one side without any facts or inputs and believe every word. That is their problem, not mine.
As for me I am so blessed to be surrounded by some of the most amazing family & friends anyone in the world can ask for. But more than anything I am blessed to be the daughter of the one true God. Because of Him I survived the trails the last few months have thrown my way and I will survive anything else life decides to throw at me.
Every day I spend the morning with God and without fail He places a word of truth and hope in my heart. I don't always trust man but I will always trust God. One of the many amazing things about God is that He loves us no matter what we have done, no matter what we think, or how we act. His love is unconditional. He wants us to have the very best in life but sometimes in order to receive the best we need to go through the worse. It is during that time of despair that we can only reach up to the One who will take us in His arms and love us.
Sadly, for many Christians it is this time of despair that we want God to fix things fast and easy. I mean who wouldn't? None of us likes pain or heartbreak. But if He did that for us then we would turn into shallow, lazy, uncaring people who only thought of ourselves. And we wouldn't need Him. I need God. I want the best of this life God gave me. In order to have that I need to give it all to God. Not just bits and pieces at my choosing, all of it. I have to trust Him and put my faith in Him...only.
Dependence upon God makes heroes of ordinary people like you and me! Bruce Wilkinson
