There is always something......

Good morning....it is just a gorgeous morning! This winter has been especially mild; although we still have a few months before were are through with it. I am just excited to start gardening when the time is right! Sounds like I have cabin fever and I have not even been cooped up inside yet! Anyways, as you know walking by Faith does "appear" to cause you to face constant battles and challenges. Faith does not bring on life challenges, but the worldly influences do. How we choose to handle them is what tends to waver the strength of our Faith to our Lord Jesus Christ. I have to work really hard to know that I am not in control of ANYTHING!

It is only the second day of this brand new year and BAM....I am faced with my first stomach turning challenge! All the poisonous emotions run through my body...fear, doubt, and confusion! I start to scramble to figure out a solution and to figure out how I am going to stop my heart from racing 90 miles an hour! "Please Lord guide me through my most difficult situations," just keeps running through my head.  The most reassuring thing is that everything works out the way it is supposed to. I do not even have to be specific on what my challenges are because no matter what it is..... it is best to lean on our Savior Jesus Christ! Big or small everyone has to deal with obstacles that appear to be unbeatable...money, sickness, raising children, employment...etc.

All these challenges are heart wrenching situations that cause us to stray away from FAITH for just a second or maybe even longer. What knocks me back to a strong hold on my Faith is the Bible. Oh how I love this book! Proverbs 3:5, helped me get through this morning's difficult situation..."Trust in the Lord with all your Heart, and do not lean on your own understanding." That could not have been said any better. Straight forward and to the point. Let the situation go out of your hands and know that God is taking care of it for you! Easier said than done...I know. Every day of my life I see that I am craving to learn more of what strengthens me most ....learning the Word! I hope everyone has a glorious day....and remember to Trust in the Lord with all your Heart! :)
