I told you so....

See, I told you the blogs would become regular again when my internet was hooked up!

I think a lot about what to write in my blog. I don't have a very eventful life so there's usually not too many exciting things to record. Then I realized that there's nothing else better to talk about than the one thing in this life that gives me hope.

The past few weeks have been outrageously stressful and crazy for me. Moving, school, and life in general have been less than desirable to say the least. Why? Who knows. There wasn't a particular reason. Have you ever had those days (or weeks) when Satan robs you of not only your joy, but even hopes of a better future? I was drowning in doubt, worry, and fear. I felt disconnected from God and I couldn't figure out why. I knew He was beside me the whole time but I didn't feel it. All I knew to do was pray. I prayed, prayed some more, read, prayed again, etc. I felt like I needed a miracle and because I was so wrapped up in my sin and lack of faith, I couldn't see past that moment. I wasn't better overnight. God waited. But He answered me.

This blog serves to praise our AWESOME God. I have felt so much better lately. My life hasn't changed. It's still not perfect-by far. I still worry. I am still afraid of things I shouldn't be. But, God changed me and he changed my heart. He has given me peace and security. I give Him all the glory for being my miracle and for allowing me to catch a glimpse of the future again and to live outside of what I was experiencing previously. He is so faithful and so unbelievable. I am amazed, still.

Hide me, now.
Under your wings.
Cover me, within your mighty hand.

When the oceans rise and thunders roar.
I will soar with you above the storm.
Father you are King over the flood.
I will be still and know you are God.

Find rest my soul.
In Christ alone.
Know His power.
In quietness and trust.

When the oceans rise and thunders roar.
I will soar with you about the storm.
Father you are King over the flood.
I will be still and know you are God.
