He Makes ALL THINGS New!

I found something really great in one of the MANY books I am reading. My husband will vouch for the fact that I read WAY too much! It keeps me busy!

"At times we need to remind ourselves that God knows what He's doing. When we can't trace His hand, we MUST trust His heart!"

"For God sees a bigger picture than we do. And although He loves us with a tender passion, He will use whatever method is needed to make us more like His Son. Even if it hurts. Even when we struggle to understand. 'Behold I make all things new'"

When I look around at my circumstances, I do not understand AT ALL what He's doing with me. Almost daily He reminds me that I am not called to know, only to trust. Even though it hurts. Boy does it! Knowing these things in my heart doesn't always prevent me from having a crappy day! I do not doubt that God knows what He's doing. I'm even thankful that He is using me as a part of His plan. If He didn't do another thing for me while on this earth, the fact that He sacrificed His only son is reason enough for me to praise Him for the rest of my life. I have to keep reminding myself of that!

I have a lot to be thankful for. A wonderful husband. A wonderful, supportive family. Awesome friends. A great church (by the way, I will be posting pics of our new church soon!) A very fulfilling job. Next to a lot of people, I do not have anything to complain about. I thank God for that.

So, we sit. And wait. I have told God that the ONLY gift I want this Mother's Day is for our baby to be home! I know He hears me. I also know that He wants me to have him here. I just PRAY it's part of His plan. Thank you all for your prayers and your support! You are wonderful! I hope every one's having a great weekend so far. I'll be posting again soon!
