Something I've been learning...

The past three years have definitely been a roller coaster, but I wouldn't trade them for the anything in world. God is always in control, especially when life seems out of control. Why is it that completely trusting Him is so difficult? It should be the simplist thing. That is one lesson  that this experience taught me - I rely way too much on myself. I need to rely on God for my daily strengthen because in my own power, I will fail. In God's power, I will succeed. Don't get me wrong! I definitely do not have this mastered at all! But that is the beauty of it. I do not need to "master" it. Christianity is not a check list. It is a lifestyle and a journey. God patiently and lovingly molds us into His image, not on our accord, but through His almighty power. We are His artwork. Our life should shout to the world that we are not of this world, that we are the handy work of our Creator!
