This statement is so true...too bad I cannot figure out which one to choose. I am struggling so much with my faith right now. I do not like to admit it or even face it. But, things were so much better when I randomly attended church. When I wasn't as devoted to our Lord, life was easier. I do not understand the suffering that Christians go through on a day to day basis. And, we are just suppose to accept that. Although, I am going through some different things right now that are not pleasurable. I am trying to keep fresh in my mind that I have a husband that will stick by me when times are rough. I have five kids that ARE blessings...no matter what they put us through! I have amazing friends that want to make me smile...even if they are unsure what is really going on.
Living my life without knowing what is going to happen in the future...does not suit me well. I do not consider myself a planner at all...but, I do like to know what is in store for me. I want to know His plan for my life. Why this obstacle? What should I be learning from it? It is so frustrating.
For the next month, these emotions must go on the back burner. I want to celebrate Christmas with cheer in my heart. I ask that the ones that love me...pray for my faith to return full force and pray for my families well being. I love them and would be lost without each and every one of them in my life.
