That was my grand revelation the other day as I ran through a batch of duck droppings to get to my fav place to run these days (under the shade of my 47 trees God had perfectly lined up for me in celebration of my recent 47th birthday!). And that’s life! We’re going to have to deal with some crappy times! Not every day is all sunshiny and bright, let me tell ya, but these dark times are on the way to our own personal promised lands. Heehaw!
God knows what He is doing for us. Nothing is wasted with God! He uses these dark times to stretch, mold, grow, and teach us and, most importantly, BRING US CLOSER TO HIM. My worst times become my best times. They are when I had to lean on and wholly depend on God. I was running to Him every minute, ‘God, what do I do here?’ And He is always available to help guide me through the most complicated of issues. Don’t play with God, He is an expert in everything!!!
Solutions to problems would magically pop in my head, when I know I’m not that smart. People would show up to assist me. Like a professional who met with my husband and I for free for three hours to help us sort through a challenge that had come up. God is amazing! To the point I just TRUST Him completely! God may kill me, but still I will trust Him.
How’s your relationship with God? He has asked me to help bring you closer to Him. Don’t miss out on all this love and attention. Human love is duck poop compared to God’s love. Oh my goodness! No one can love the way God does. Even that my worst times become my best times because in my weakness, His strength comes through with Him seeming to ask, ‘Who is messing with my Nik!’ What was meant to harm me is miraculously turned into my good when it brings me closer to God, wrapped up in His love as HIS GIRL. I then can respond to situations and other people from there, being the strong, courageous, and brave Nik, but yet still soft, gentle, loving, and forgiving. God, thank You!!!! Have your appointments with Him reading or listening to anything spiritual. He has lots to tell you! WALK WITH HIM IN EVERY MOMENT, seeking His wisdom, strength, and LOVE.
