Journal entry by Ann— Nov 27, 2017
I’m so sorry I submitted that last entry before I was done. So here’s the rest! The last word of the sentence ending in perfect is where I left off.
He allows what comes into our lives as His perfect plan. For example people, events, blessings, places we go, losses, and difficult upbringings. He is a miracle worker not a wishing well. He always answers our prayers it just isn’t always the answer we want to receive. When God doesn’t intervene that’s when a strong faith comes in and we have to accept His sovereignty. Even if we don’t understand it, He has a purpose that we are not always able to see. So no matter where we are in our life He is there. No matter the circumstances He is there. And knowing that the Creator of everything never leaves me gives me great comfort. Because of Him I can do anything. He will lift me up even in the midst of the most difficult circumstances.
God’s blessing are all around us every day not just in November. To get your mind thinking I’ll share just a few of mine that are easily seen by my eyes.
General health in my home. Successful surgery’s. Basic needs met. My daughters laughter. Great friends that are more like family. Freedom of religion. A husband who is my best friend. Watching my daughters grow in their love for the Lord. A loving church family. Last but most important that God wants me as His daughter and has changed my whole life for the better. Your turn to make a list!
Just love each other and be open to showing compassion and care for others. Appreciate what you have and tell those in your life how much you care about them. Life can change in a moment and those you love could be taken away. A life of ease was never promised to us. There will be pain, suffering, and sorrow, but there will also be joy. Soak up those moments they help with the difficult ones. Love, Ann
On a side note…
