This past Sunday in church, our Pastor gave a sermon regarding "The Spirit Within Us" and the main portion of scripture he referenced was John 14:1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me." He discussed how "Human beings were created to be filled with God's spirit. A person who does not have God's Spirit will not be able to live the life that God created them to live..." What he said really spoke to my heart because I have many people in my life that are close to me who are going through some difficult trials in their lives right now...I pray for them all on a daily basis!I really feel that no matter what someone is going through, no matter how hard something is to deal with, or how stressful the unknown things of life can be, if you put your faith & trust in God and really know that you are allowing Him to guide your day to day path by His Spirit, then you'll make it through...Last week I feel that God was speaking to me regarding some things that I had been praying about in my life regarding mothering, schooling and basic household life...I had some different opportunities throughout the week to really self-reflect and I feel a new peace inside about a lot of things...I am too tired tonight to elaborate, this will have to wait for a Part II or something, but I just felt like encouraging you that if you pray faithfully and wait for God to reveal to you what he has planned for your life instead of trying to make things happen on your terms (which I was trying to do a LOT!), you can really have peace, joy and contentment in your life! Try it, you might just be surprised!

What a beautiful testimony to God's love for us. I can't wait for part II.
