That may seem like a weird title but I felt that with all that I have been through it was time I give thanks to the one being that has helped me on this journey. So I thank you, Lord, my savior, and provider. I don’t often give him the credit that he so deserves because I feel like he knows it. But the truth is I often forget that without his strength and shoulder to lean on I could not have made the decisions that brought me to this place. It is true that many times over the past months I have questioned my choices, my decisions and wondered if I did actually follow what the Holy Spirit was leading me to do. It’s a doubt that sometimes keeps me awake at night.
I’ve questioned my every action up to this day and wondered if I acted too quickly, did I take time to seek his advice, or did I just do what I wanted to do without thinking about the consequences? Yet I know deep down the Lord has been watching over me and guiding me through this season of my life. I know that because of the many blessing he has given me this past year. As I may have shared in an earlier post this place I live in is because he answered my prayer. There are so many signs around me always that show me my God is alive and here with me.
I choose to believe I am God’s workmanship and his plan for my life is one of purpose and abundance. I have been asked on more than one occasion why I am not mad at God for calling Tom home to him. My response is if I ask why this happened then I also need to ask why are you blessing me with so many good things? I have come to realize that I don’t need to ask why I only need to say Thank you because it is through his grace his love for me that I have been able to make this journey through grief without losing my faith.
I may have moments of doubt creep in and question how I got here but that still small voice reminds me that His grace is what gives me the ability to get up in the morning and say thank you for this day. It’s what gives me peace deep inside that blocks out all the worldly insanity that’s going on now. I know that my God will keep me safe even in the storms of life. He may not always block them but he certainly will walk with me through them. Even if I don’t see his hand at work I know that he’s got this.
Prayer: I pray Lord that you will continue to protect me, and my loved ones. Keep all those who truly follow you safe and those that have yet to find you to seek you. That your voice is heard in the midst of all the shouting so others may turn to You and see that you are in control. That you would bless my family, my friends, and all those whose paths I cross and continue to hold them close. As you meet each of our needs may we always remember you are God the Father, creator of the universe, and all living things. Thank you for this life I am living as I continue to follow your guidance. I am truly blessed and highly favored. Amen!
