Grateful and Blessed Despite the Struggles

I must admit the past few months have been anything but passionate. I haven’t even done a great job of going through the motions. I know that Christ is in control and I have, even through this valley seen His faithfulness.

I have seen His hand at work in my family. I love to hear of my sister’s trials for in it I see her faith growing. I see her taking a stand, when before she remained quiet. I see God’s hand on my other sister. I know she is facing many demons but the quiet resolve is starting to come down as she faces the stark reality of a future fractured from those that she loves. I worry about her emotionally but I know that too is in God’s hands, He will see her through if she’ll just keep her focus on Him. I see my other sister turning back to God asking for prayer in her time of needs, It is certainly a move in the right direction. And watching as my sister-in-law grows in her knowledge of the Lord, increasing her faith is awesome.

It is all such a blessing and I count myself blessed as I have gained much of this through the gift of faith and wisdom given to me by my Heavenly Father at such a young age. Thank God for parents, who weren’t perfect but did bring me up in church. I count it a blessing that my children know God. Although they are not as close to Him as I would like, they are learning about serving and curious about the heavenly things. I also see God’s hand in my financial situation. Although I want the change to come in my supervisor, God has instead worked with the creditors to help me to get on track. For that I am grateful.
