But as for me, I trust in You, O Lord, I say, “You are my God.” (Psalm 31:14)
While I am still walking through a valley with no mountain top insight, I know it is coming. I'm going to keep walking forward with God by my side. God has never failed me, and I've remembered all of the times He has pulled me through when no one else could help, and no one else could solve the problem.
If you're finding yourself struggling, I know there are many times He has been there for you just as He has for me. I read a post once that said, "if you got out of bed, have a roof over your head, clothes on your back, and food to eat, then you are blessed and can thank God for the blessings". It is true that once we start thanking and praising God, our focus turns to him and not our problems. I started thanking God for the job He is preparing for me, and it's making a world of difference for me and my relationship with Christ.
God is still my God. He has been for most of my life and will continue to be for all of eternity. I love Jesus Christ with as much of my being that is possible. I can't imagine facing this difficult time in my life without Him. He is my strength when I'm weak. I know He will see my husband and me through this season in our life.
I praise His Holy Name and thank Him for always being there, but most importantly, I thank Him for saving me from my sins and giving me the gift of eternal life. No matter how rough or tough this life gets, my rest is coming after this life is over. While it's usually not good to look into the future too far, the one part I do look forward to is spending eternity with Jesus.
Here is a song I'd like to share. I pray it will bless someone in a special way.
Lyrics:
Life can take our breath away
Tragedy can leave a wake
A broken heart won’t ever beat the same
Pain can stop us in our tracks
Losing what we can’t get back
Shaking the foundations of our faith
No matter whats in my way
No matter the battles I face
You are still my God
You’re still my rock
My only hope Lord,
You’re all I’ve got
In every valley or mountaintop
I’ll say hallelujah
You’re still my God
The questions keep us in the fight
The answer’s never black or white
We may not know until the other side
But even in this in between
We fix our eyes on what’s unseen
The shadows never overcome the light
No matter whats in my way
I know that You won’t ever change
You’re still my hope
You’re still my peace
You’re still my joy
You’re all I need
You’re still my strength
When I am weak
You’re still my God
I still believe
