The past couple of weeks have been okay. I really have not cried. That's how I measure a good week - funny how circumstances can change how you view things. However, today we had an awesome service and I just cried my heart out. They were not tears of sadness but just a crying out to God. Crying out for continued strength, crying out for wisdom, cryng out to thank Him for all He's done, crying out for my daughter and I as a family unit, crying out to hear God's plan for our lives. I know that I know that Frank's passing is not the end of God's plan for our ministry but instead the beginning. Sometimes I am just so anxious to see God's plan but his word says "his word is a lamp unto my feet". So if it's a lamp, that means I can't see everything at once but step by step He'll shine that lamp and I just have to keep trusting Him to keep leading and shining the way. I have many questions about my future, my daughter's future and God just keeps reminding me to just trust in Him and He'll show me what I need to see when I need to see it. We are so much into that "quick fix" mentality because everything now days is done quickly. Yes God can work quick sometimes but there are times where He does things at a slower pace for whatever reasons. In my particular case right now I think He's just trying to build me up to prepare me for what He has planned. In the past week He has shown me the blessings that come with that trust and obedience. Too many of us Christians think that once you become a Christian life should be easy, after all, we have God on our side now or better said, we are on the right side now. However, we forget that there is an adversary out there whose job is to bring adverse situations. You can't grow, you can't truly experience God's glory without going through those storms, trials etcetera but there is a promise that as you go through, you believe, you trust and remain obedient those blessings will come. I can testify to that because it's happened in my life. So as difficult as the hard times have been, I thank God for them because they have and continue to transform me to be the woman of God He wants me to be.
Praise you King Jesus
