When it Rains...

They say when it rains it pours. In light of the past few months I would almost have  to agree except that seems extremely negative. Yes things have been insane, to an outsider it would appear that my world is falling apart but in reality I have come to accept that " God works all things for the good of those who love him" and that I have been asked to "Cast all my anxieties on him for he cares for me". It can be so hard to keep your chin up when your life looks like mine does. The deck is stacked against me but I have faith that God is up to something. God is working in my life. God is amazing, he has great plans, he knows what he is doing. That is enough for me. Sometimes I get down, we all do but in the end God doesn't want us walking around down and gloomy all the time! He has great things for all of us in some way. It takes time to figure that out, and he won't force it on us. He leads us one step at a time. He gives us what we can handle and he gives us what we need to handle what he give us. I was thinking this morning, after some unexpected stress and complicated mumbo jumbo, " God why?' His answer was simple " Jennifer, why not?". From every circumstance, every trial, every blessing there is something to be learned. It is not always crystal clear what that something is but it's always very clear when you look that God is working. So yeah, needed to get that off my chest. God IS working. I don't know how or when or where he will use this but he is teaching me some valuable lesson that I will someday appreciate.
