my fb status before church this morning was "this is the day that the Lord has made...REJOICE and be glad in it!" then at church we sing "Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say, rejoice". then my best friend texts me this message -- "Mind wandering in church. Wanted to share this. "Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying." Romans 12:12 Not sure why I should share this." my text back was "i do." are you seeing the theme here?
for some reason it always surprises me when God does something like this. i know, i know. it shouldn't. but it does. and i love it every time! it's like getting a gentle, and not so subtle smack upside the head from God. LISTEN TO ME, GIRL!
i'm scared. scared of how much all of this stuff is going to hurt. i don't care much for pain. call me crazy. scared of how this is affecting my guys. scared of the financial aspects. scared that i won't be tough enough mentally. know what the best part is? GOD ISN'T SCARED. He is in control. i can REJOICE in that knowledge. i can be patient in my trouble dude, am i learning a heck of a lesson in patience. i am about as far from patient as a gal can get! and keep on praying.
