All good things must come to an end, but sometimes doesn't it seem like all things come to an end all at once?! Today was spent hunting a new television. Which of course went out after the truck was wrecked and after the Christmas presents have been purchased and given. Perhaps having insight into the impending demise of the television would have given second thoughts to certain Christmas spending (but then again maybe not). So it seems that when things begin to settle and the bank account is starting its recovery from the last spending spree or major disaster...here we go again!
Life can be most trying at times. Sometimes it may even seem that nothing is going the way you had planned and the world is crumbling around you. It is at these times that it is most important to put your faith in God. Ironically this was even a point in the message at church today...trust in Him. Oh sure we say it to others in their time of need, but do we really believe it when we ourselves are faced with our own trials? I am guilty of not always practicing what I preach. However, when I look back at all the times I was angry because life was not going my way I am so glad it didn't. So many cases of "glad I dodged that bullet" make me realize that God's plan is ALWAYS better than mine.
Proverbs 3:5 says "Trust in The Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding.
Today's Blessing: I am blessed that He loves me enough to have made a plan for me from the moment He created me. Through trials come lessons.
