Faith

I think I can safely say, it has been a rough few months for me for a multitude of reasons. I think of the old saying, "When it rains, it pours!" It's been a season of pouring rain in my life. Now, I feel like I'm coming out on the other end of the rainy season with a greater sense of faith. It is only through those trials that one grows, and this time it is my faith in God that has grown. I have been, and still am, in the midst of things too big for me to handle. I am finally in a position, where I throw my hands up and say, "God, I can't do this! I can only trust in you and have faith that you will get me through!" I picture Him smiling, nodding His head, and saying, "She is finally where I want her. She has finally come to the understand that she can't do everything on her own, and needs My help." I guess, I've always given lip service to God about how I want his guidance, and want His will to be done. For some reason, this time it feels different. Instead of just talking about it, I'm now walking it. That's a very scary thing, but there is a peace about me. A peace that it all will work out. A peace that says I don't have to have all of the answers. A peace that God IS in control. Thank God for that!
