Struggles

I’ve struggled with my faith the past few days simply because things aren’t going the way I would prefer. I know the Lord promised he would be with me in these difficult times but as a human being I want this to be over. I’m relieved there is no more radiation but I still feel some of the side effects, like dizziness and I sometimes can’t see out of my left eye.

I have to make time to sit alone with Him so that I may hear his voice. When I watch the birds I can sometimes (I'm sure I miss His message many a times) see and understand what He’s trying to tell me. “All in His time” and it makes me smile. I don’t know why but when I listen carefully I know I’m going to be alright. I shall overcome.

I need your continued prayers for strength, courage, faith, joy, peace, and perseverance not only for me but my loved ones.


This verse says it all to me: Trusting in my own mental understanding becomes a hindrance to complete trust in God. I must be willing to ignore and leave my feelings behind. I must will to believe. But this can never be accomplished without my forceful, determined effort to separate myself from my old ways of looking at things. I must surrender myself completely to God. (My Utmost for His Highest)
Have a blessed day,
