Hey There...Hope you are ready for the day...
Yesterday, I took some time to look back through some of my journals, just to see where my life has been....
I stopped on June 6th 2007 and as I read the words that I had written, I was so reminded of how we need to Trust God in all things.
I wrote:
:::~ My salvation comes from God alone! He is my rock, my fortress, my strength, and with God on my side, I can not be shaken....
I can find complete rest in God. As I put my complete Trust in the Lord, I will no longer be held captive by negative thoughts when the enemy tries to attack. I can lean on the Lord, for I do know that He is my ROCK...
I surrender my heart to You this day and I lean on you because I myself am mentally weak as well as the rest of the family....You are our healer and today I Trust you Lord as I pray for Tucker's healing...... I know that you God, are in control of all things..
I know that we can come to You claiming healing for Tucker because YOU bore the stripes of healing for us.....This has been a very difficult and very trying time, but you are God over all and You will see us through.......
I just need to wait upon God during these times of emotional stress. Relax and feel God as He breaths on me. I need to Trust Him and realize the eternal value that awaits. I need to understand that even through all of Tuck's pain and sickness, God is making a way for him and God has special plans for Tucker's life.
Father God today, I pray these things............and......
...............and.......................and.............................
..................and..................................

.......and this too.............

You are an awesome God and You Lord are worthy of all Praise....
To you Lord, I give Glory, Honor and Praise.....
In Jesus Name, Amen!
I Miss You Mom......
I love you Sam ~ :::
I am thankful that I can look back through my many, many journals and see God's touch on our lives....This is what is so awesome about keeping a journal...Not only can you see prayers that have been answered in your own life, but you can recognize God's hand as it has moved upon others......
Shug Sez....
I love my journals......
I love your journals too!!! I agree, God is good all the time.
ReplyDeleteSo neat that you have these to look back on - Praying for strength and comfort during this time.
ReplyDeleteWhose the hot shooter up top? Looks like a real marksman.
ReplyDeleteMOM! Is that me? Wow! I look like I know what I am doing :) Your blog today is awesome....I hope one day we can compile all of your blogs into a book.
ReplyDeleteI love journals, too. Sometimes, tho, things happen that makes it very hard to write about.
ReplyDeleteThey tell me that time heals. I know that it does...but not always. Sometimes healing is just not to be.
I missed my mother so much when she passed away and started writing in a journal...just as if I were talking to her. It really helped get me thru the first few years. Altho I miss her every day, God and time have helped soothe my soul.
The other heartbreak...I couldn't go thru it without God. Time won't work on this one....but God ALWAYS is there for me. Without HIM, I would have just laid down and died.
I enjoyed your pretty post, Shug.
I always feel better after reading about how strong your faith is.

That is partly why I starting blogging. I hope that in future years, I can look back and see how far we have come. :)
