Do you ever have those days when you feel like you are not one of the "lucky" ones in life? Maybe, you feel like someone got a better job than you when you worked harder or everything is going "right" for someone else and not you? Yep, I was having one of those days-Today :(. I hate it when I drown myself in a pity-party but sometimes it's good for the soul..just don't let it last to long.
Tonight I was reminded that we all have those days. I was thumbing through Grant's study Bible that I bought him 6-26-06 (the date is written up front). I came across Psalm 20:4. The theme that describes these verses says this: A prayer that carries us from great suffering to great joy. Life is going to bring both. Sometimes, we might feel like it is bringing us more suffering than joy :) and that's ok. One of my dear friends said this tonight: Walking in the valleys enables us to recognize and appreciate the peaks! What? That is awesome!
I was talking to my mom today about our upcoming treatment..and crying..and missing her all at the same time. Not a good combo! She told me a cute story. She said that when I was little I was a difficult child to raise! Haha! She couldn't understand why I was so strong-willed, hard-headed & had to do things my way. Now, she believes it was God's way of making me strong & able to deal with life's different blows. I can see that! Thank you Mom!!
It's 11:40pm & feel much better now that I have blogged! Ah! Leave you with this thought. Never stop praying, even in your darkest moments he is always there to listen!
