I just love evenings like this. One that I can pour a glass of wine, have a little Brie.... and crackers... enjoy a pesto and tomato pizza and just relax and think and reflect... Count my many blessings.... see clearly God working in my life....
....I've begun trusting myself again. And it feels right... and good. While in a vulnerable place I began questioning myself too much and what I had to offer. And you know what? After much soul searching I'm coming out of it. I'm realizing I have much experience and much to share of value. I don't need to hold back when the circumstance warrants. Adversity will do that to a person. Make them question. Doubt. But it's designed to eventually make us stronger. With more resilience, courage and strength ... and more to give.
It is doing that.
God uses adversity for our good. If we are willing and open....
Times of questioning in our lives have their place. I welcome it. But I'm feeling stronger now. God brought me into, stayed with me, walked with me through... and brought me out of.... is STILL bringing me out of.... tough times .... for a reason. Once again I am seeing that His divine plan involves nothing, NOTHING, being wasted. It's used for our good.... for a purpose.... whether you believe in Him or not... He is....
... for you too.
I'm trusting.
Thankful.
Grateful.
At peace.
Questioning is good. If we never ask questions, we never learn. And in my mind, that is what we're her for: to grow from our experiences, and learn to be more like Him. It's never easy, but each difficulty conquered feels so good!
