It is so hard to see the bigger picture. It is impossible to understand why we have to hurt. Why people come into our lives and out of them. It has been quite a week around these here parts. It's been a week full of fear and anxiety, exercises in obedience despite discomfort, heartache, overwhelming joy and blessings. My head is spinning. I'd be lying if I didn't admit that staying in bed for a couple days didn't sounds mighty fine at this moment.
But I won't do that. I won't lay down. I will keep on trucking. I will continue to give God every day of my life, no matter how hard some of those days might be. I will make that choice because I am His warrior. In Him, I find the strength to carry on.
I will do this because of the promise He made.
Romans 8:28
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.
I am called according to His purpose and he will make all things right. I will walk by faith and not by sight. No matter what the cost. Amen.
