Trust

It seems as of late all my posts are me expressing how somedays my life just feels like a roller coaster. I'm just so ready for school to be over it's not even funny. This next week is my last full week of classes and then I enter into FINALS!! But hey it is one step closer to Summer....... Then its off to have some fun while working

I feel there is so much going on that some days I can't even seem to catch my breath, or just stop and rest. My body, mind and emotions are tired. I am coming to the end of the ropes. So more than ever I am holding on to Jesus because I know in him I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Sometimes it seems that it would be so much easier if Life was just simple, but it never can be simple. But without struggles who would we be, without mountains where would we go. In everything we learn lessons, sometimes the hard way sometimes we get the easy way out. Sometimes I feel as if everyday I am learning more and more lessons. But the one that is always there in my life is to continue to trust God and have complete Faith in him. To never doubt him, his word, his judgement, but to heed to his instruction even if it is not what we want. Even if we think we have it figured out we must continue to rely on him. All the pieces of the missing puzzle of our lives will slowly but surely fall into place, in his timing, not ours. Sometimes thats a hard place to be. Sometimes you don't know where to go or what to do. But all you have to do is rest in his arms and he will wrap his loving arms around you.
One of my favorite songs is by Hillsong Live "The Desert Song" in the bridge it says "All of my life in every season you are still God, I have a reason to sing, I have a reason to worship" this is so true in so many ways. In every season, the good, the bad and the in betweens he is ALWAYS AND FOREVER there in the exact moment and time that you need him. Remember that!

Finish The Race

Do you ever just have those moments in time when all you can do is it in the silence and listen to God? Thats where I am right now. Just sitting....listening... and waiting upon him...

It seems as of late there is just so much going on in my everyday life, that I don't just sit and listen.

Im about to enter whirlwind of finals, papers, exams, stress and trying to finish strong. I could easily let myself just get stressed or worried but I know that God is on my side and i will come out on top. Without him I am nothing.

It seems the storms of life are raging all around me but i will keep pressing on because I know that greater things are yet to come. maybe I cant see it but I feel it.

My God is a big God and nothing is to big for him to handle. Dream big, far and wide.

I am a runner, when I get to a point where I feel like quitting, which is usually close to the end, I relate it to my everyday life situations. I think about the struggles of life, the ups and downs, and all the in betweens and I think to myself that I would not just give up in the middle, I would not just say ok Im done and walk away, But I would finish the race that God had set before me and i would finish it stronger and better than ever. so when I feel like giving up I place my struggles in front of me and i war and I fight with them until I get to the finish line, because I am an overcomer and will not be defeated. You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.

so if nothing else, be encouraged and know that you can finish the race and finish it strong. Don't give up and don't look to the left or to the right............
