THIS SEASON

[JoJo1990]

             This season of my life has been full of pain and trials. I've lost my mother (passed away), my daughter (to drugs), my health (I've been diagnosed with, among other things, what my mother died from). Our financial stability, my church family, my best friend, my job (which I LOVED) and almost my marriage (I literally was packing my boxes). I have never experienced such turmoil since I dedicated my life to serving God. At first I didn't understand why God was trying to kill me because at times I literally felt that the pain and agony would do me in, it was all to much to endure. But eventually I realized, HE was only making me stronger in him. As each storm hit he was there saying "trust in me". And so I do, Well I try. I'm better at it than I was before. Nothing about my situation has changed... But I have. I guess that's what he meant when he said "All things work together for the good of those who love Me". Well I Love You Lord and I'm believing your in control of everything. Thank You for what Your doing in Me.

I'm sorry you've had so much happening. And, I am sorry for the loss of your Mom...such a difficult loss to deal with...and too your DD...I will be saying a prayer for you, your DD, your health and all that's going on. As you say....having (keeping) FAITH is so important...especially in times of hardship.
