God's Plans

Hey everyone! It has been so long since I have wrote. I've been pretty busy and when I'm not busy I just haven't felt like writing. Maybe it's all this cold weather that makes me not feel as motivated as usual. (I'll blame it on that and not laziness!!) So, I'd like to thank God for the wonderful weather we are having today. It's in the 70s and I couldn't be happier. Oh, and I am going with my nephew to Hot Hearts tonight to see TobyMac!!! It's so awesome to see young kids who love the Lord. It's such a blessing!!


As many of us know, God's plans aren't always exactly our plans. I've wrote about this before but everyones situation is different and you always have to look for your silver lining. It may not be the answer you are looking for at the time, but maybe one day you will see it.


I have been through a lot in the last couple of years, but I definitely know that everything happened for a reason. It's still a reason that I can't even begin to comprehend, but God knows. Looking back, I can see things that happened, that changed me to bring me where I am today. I know for certain that I wouldn't have as much faith as I do now, I wouldn't be able to handle all of the small/medium things in life, and I certainly wouldn't be able to share to others what God has done for me. I am still working on that...actually God is. : ) I now know that I can get through MAJOR trials in my life with God and it has shown me that I can get through anything as long as I trust Him.

I thought about this the other day... God will never give you more than you can handle and obviously He has way more faith in me than I do. : ) I feel he has put me in certain situations so I can be there for people. You never know what someone is going through, but just knowing that you are there for them and that you have been in their situation (and made it through!!) may be a huge help! Hopefully you notice areas in your life where you could be a light to others. Hope you have a good weekend!!
