It’s been quite the year. Great things have happened for me. While other things that I had come to lean on are no longer a part of my life. God has opened doors while closing others. We don’t always understand His reasons, but we have to trust that He knows what He is doing and in the end, everything will work out.
The greatest blessing of 2015 is on the horizon for me. Along the way, some bumps in the road have come up. Some of these bumps have even felt like sinkholes, sucking me in and potentially keeping me away from the greatness that lie ahead on my journey. I have felt temporarily down and even shed some tears through these downs, but because I know God is here right by my side that I am going to do it. I was going to make it through.
I’ve picked myself up knowing that I have the strength and power of God behind me to keep moving onward. Nothing is impossible for me with God by my side. I fully believe that He is there telling me that I can do it. Initially, it may feel hard, but I can do anything with God. He has made so many great and amazing things possible in my life. I think that sometimes we have to experience a storm in order to appreciate when the sun is out and shining upon us. Without trying times, we can’t fully appreciate the wonderful times.
If you are, or have been going through tough times, remember that you can and will get through it. Be strong and trust in God. He will always be there for us no matter what. Prayer is the greatest power you have. 🙂
Regardless of our beliefs, we have to have faith in ourselves and the process. Control what you can control, work for what you can, and always look to the future with a smile!
