Lately my life has been crazy and chaotic (hence why this is my first update in a while, I apologize)
Even as I type this there are people around me wanting to talk to me about stressful stuff. If I were not walking with Christ I would most likely be in a complete and total wreck. Christ truly makes ALL the difference. The verse I keep remembering through this time is....
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." ~John 16:33
Jesus has overcome the world...yes there is still going to be trial but I can have joy!
My God is bigger than the world. My God is bigger than the universe. If my God is all this and I truly believe He is then why do I worry that He cannot fix my comparably small problem? Why do I think He has to fix it for that matter? I don't deserve for it to be fixed. What if God has a lesson in this for me to learn? What if my problem is actually there so that other believers and nonbelievers alike can see how I deal with it (hopefully) in a Godly manner. What if its there so I can be a witness? GOD HAS A REASON AND A PURPOSE FOR THIS!
Yeah I have a lot of problems,trials., and tests I am going through right now but I am striving to find joy in Christ through it all. He is giving me peace.
Praise God for His Wisdom and for times of trial! I pray that I learn through this and I thank God for His peace that passes all understanding.
