What choice do have in trusting God? A leak in our front bath tub costing five thousand dollars to repair and reconstruct, a plumbing leak in the line in our front yard that costs two thousand dollars, my car creates the aroma of burning rubber and every light on the dashboard comes on... All of this, not to mention many other personal issues...
I really don't believe that I am somehow special. When I talk with other folks in the real world I hear tragic stories of cancer, babies dying,drug addiction,broken marriages,jobs lost,dishonest buisness people and families praying for their children to make wise healthy decisions in life.
The Bible tells be that if God is for me than who can be against me... The way I see this in the very practical/spiritual, living out of day to day is this. The storms around me NEVER end. Don't get me wrong, I do have good days but in my head and my awareness, there is always a burden/storm on the horizon. So far the most healthy thing I have found is my faith in the One that thought of you and me and all of these storms before the creation of this world. My creator changes the way I experience life, the fun happy days yes but especially the ordinary painful, frustrating,heartbreaking days. They have purpose and give me meaning and add to my focus on what IS right and good in this moment! I then have some joy and hope to share with YOU! Blessing...
