This is not something I wrote. It's something I read on a young child's caringbridge site. But it fits my circumstance lately.
There may come a time when little makes sense, and evil and chaos seem to be winning the day. These might be times when we feel hopelessness and confusion, when we do not see even a flicker of light. And the lesson of Jesus’ scars is to hold on, to be patient and to trust God, even when we cannot see any reason to do so. He will help us. There is a loving God who can sustain us, enable us to endure, and mold us into someone better than we were before. The cross prepares us for difficult times. The resurrection proves that God is greater than evil, and it gives confidence and HOPE during the dark times. Because the risen Christ’s wounds show us that our hope is not in vain.

I really LOVE this!!! You know sometimes my days seem like I'm going to just crash and burn and others are great but having faith in God and putting it all in his hands is what gets me through the days. Esspecially with Charley overseas everyday I pray for his safe return and each and every day I do not know where I would turn if I wasn't a Christian, what a blessing God is in our lives. Sometimes it just makes me want to jump up and down then others we sometimes question God which is wrong of us but in the end we know "If God brings us to it, he'll bring us through it." AINT GOD GOOD!!!
