Things forgotten

I woke up this morning thinking about all the difficult things that we go through on this earth. Sometimes things seem harder than anything we think we can get through, yet our wonderful Heavenly Father has a plan. I know that I've been through things before that at the time, I didn't handle well, I thought it was just far more than I would ever be able to get through and yet I continued to stay faithful to Him and then something strange happens...you wake up one morning and realize you made it through and suddenly, it doesn't seem as big as it once was. Somethings I can't even remember the details of now that were all consuming to my life at one point. God can take things from us when we give them to Him and he really can erase it. It's kind of like a bad dream in the middle of the night that wakes you up....at the time it seems horrible and you can't go back to sleep for a long time, but then in the morning all of a sudden you can't even remember the details and it seems a little silly and not so big.
I'm thankful for every trial I've endured so far because they've make me who I am and they've pushed me to fall deeper and deeper in love with my Lord and Savior! :)
I'm working on getting to a place in my life that the first thing I do in any circumstance, good or bad, is talk to God before I talk to anyone else. Sometimes that is the only talking I need to do. I'm learning more and more that He is enough and He already has everything worked out for my good....after all Romans 8:28 says: "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."
So won't you join me today in loving Him more deeply and trusting our lives to Him no matter what our circumstances?
It enables me to smile and feel peace and joy today and everyday! I hope that you feel it too!
Blessings!!
