Through this ordeal, and many others, I've learned that you can't get so caught up in your circumstances or in your pain that you forget who God is and what he can do. God is not caught by surprise over your circumstances, your difficulties, your shortcomings. I've learned to trust God and seek his blessings and favor even in the midst of the trials. God led me today to Genesis where Joseph was in prison as an innocent man but yet even while in prison the word says he had God's favor and blessings. Nothing can stop God from giving us the things he desires to give us but truly how quickly we get out of the valley is many times dependant upon us. If you get stuck in the self-pity or allow the circumstances to overwhelm you then you can be like the Israelites going in circles in the desert. No, I refuse to go in circles but instead praise the Lord regardless. Something happens when you praise the Lord in the middle of the storm - he blesses you. Yes he blesses you for praising Him when you do so in the midst of the storm, in the midst of the valley because anyone can praise Him when things are good. I've been focusing more and more on Jesus and receiving His blessings. I serve the God of the impossible and He is going to turn these ashes to beauty. I await anxiously knowing that God has a plan for my life and Nikki's life and we have the victory because of the almight God we serve.
Than you Jesus!!!!
