Life has changed a lot in those three months. More than I ever expected it to...there was a bend in the road on my journey that I didn't see coming. It is a very long story and it isn't really blog material but to put it simply I'm in a place where I don't know what is next. I don't know what God is doing. I don't know what He is going to do next. Most days I feel like I don't know much of anything. But...
...I know that He is God...that He is good...that He is faithful...
I know that is kind of a "Duh" statement but I've had my moments of doubts. And those things are a big deal to hold onto when you don't have anything else to hold on to. The awesome thing about TRUTH is that it DOESN'T CHANGE with the circumstances. These things that I know, Job knew them too. Because of these truths He said:
"The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away...blessed be the name of the Lord"
(Job 1:21)
Jeremiah was another man that saw incredible suffering and devastation yet because He knew truth He wrote this:
"This I recall to mind, therefore I have HOPE.
The Lord's lovingkindnesses indeed never cease,
for His compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
Great is your faithfulness"
(Lamatations 3:21-23)
Even though I don't understand circumstances and I'm walking through a valley...I know that God is good and faithful...even when I don't feel it. God's loving kindness has yet to fail me...so I'm living one day at a time with great hope and expectation for what is around the corner that I just can't see yet.
