When things seem to be closing in around me, I am re-learning to look to Christ for my strength and comfort. The arm of flesh is weak, but Jesus is strong. The journey is not easy, the path is rough, but Christ will sustain me in times of loneliness and sadness, because He wants me to completely give my life to Him. I have been so blind, but now, finally, I am beginning to see. I know God is breaking me down to build me back up.
My blessings in life are abundant and my life is so fulfilling. Why does human nature cause us to focus on the deficiencies? I found out today that my friend has cancer. My sweet friend who would do anything for anyone in this world has cancer and it just seems so unfair…and I am worrying about my small bumps in the road – Today, my prayer’s are with her, because well…she is amazing and I love her.
Hebrews 12:1-2: Wherefore, seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
