Ever feel this way? I feel this way more and more each day:) Now, some might say, but you guys have seemed to have your run of bad luck these past few years. And yes, by worldly standards, we have been down on our luck a bit. But when you look at life with God as the center focus then in all actuality, I have and do have an amazing life. Thankfully, for one, I don't believe in luck. I believe in God. I have been dwelling on these feelings the past few weeks. This has pretty much been the PERFECT Summer Break. John has been home. The kids schedules have slowed. I have been able to just be a wife and mother. I have enjoyed the downtime.
This by no means means my life is perfect. But this is what it does mean. It means I have NO CHOICE but to put my FAITH in God. In order to make it through on a daily basis, I have no other option but to rely soley on HIM. I have to pray. I have to obey. I have to be willing to listen.
I mistakenly said to someone today...."be happy you're not me" today. And the more I thought about it, that is so wrong. I think it would be good to be me. On a daily basis, I get to see God's work firsthand. Whether it be relationships with my kids or husband or how to put food on the table or gas in the car, I see God.
He has blessed us. With much gratitude, we are truly thankful John finally found a tow car. It might not be the prettiest thing but it runs and does what John needs it to. Get from Point A to Point B:) Now, on the otherhand, my car did take a dump. I don't know how it will be fixed or if it can be fixed but I have put it in God's hands. Somehow, it will all workout.
I am known for spending too much time worrying. I still do at times but I can't anymore...It tires me. I have lots of things to work on but who doesn't. No one's perfect.
Tomorrow is Father's Day. I have been truly blessed with an amazing Dad, amazing grandfathers and a Husband who has been my Rock. He is the most wonderful man I know and am blessed beyond words that I have him.
