Life changes

Sometimes life change is fun, sometimes it is exciting and sometimes change is just plain scary. Over the next several months my family and I will be experiencing several life changes. As I look towards these changes I realize that I will be experiencing the complete range...from fun to just plain scary. I hope that during this time of change I can handle everything with grace, something I know I will need to trust God heavily for.


When I think about all the upcoming events in my life, it causes me to realize how much I must truly trust in God. Sometimes we all give lip service saying I trust God...but do we really?I mean completely trust Him with everything, not holding anything back. I know I fail at this at times.

 My character is that I  want to know the plan, work the plan and yes sometimes even control the plan.So this makes trusting sometimes a difficult thing. It requires me to let go and let God have the reigns. I constantly have to give these reigns of control up because I am constantly picking them up.

These next few months maybe years will be a test to see how well I can let God truly have the reigns of my life. I'm sure I will fail, but I am thankful I serve a God who forgives freely.

So if you think of me, be praying for me in this time of life change. As you know life is hard enough,but  when it is not something that can any longer be controlled or even guided, it becomes even more difficult.So that brings me back to trust..... I must trust my what My God has told me in His word. 

But as for me, I trust in You, O LORD, I say, “ You are my God.”

Jeremiah 29:11

 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Romans 8:28

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.
