~A Thought On My Heart

 

Today I would like to share a thought on my heart.  In life sometimes it feels as if one hardship after another happens.  At times we may wonder if life will ever stop throwing hardships our way.   When we put our trust in God, we have a different outlook on things.  The beautiful thing about trusting in God is knowing that He will use even the bad things for our good.  Paul talks in the Bible 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 about how the Lord will allow a thorn in his side because His grace is all we need.  In this way we learn to trust in Him and count on Him to get us through each day, and this truly strengthens our walk with Christ, and keeps us humble of spirit.  God's power works best in weakness.  God's ways are far beyond our human comprehension.  So in my own life I have learned to thank God for everything and know that He is with me through sicknesses, and other hardships that we endure.  I know that He cares more about our character than our comfort in this life, and he is using all that we must walk through to prepare us for eternity.  It is good to know that even through our hardships Jesus is with us through them all.

This is just a thought on my heart today, and I thought I would share it in the hopes that it may help someone who also deals with hardships in this life.  God bless you and keep you in His loving care.  Hugs to you.  ~Juli
