I really needed to read it right now - It's truly amazing how God gives you what you need when you think He's forgotten about you.<BR/><BR/>Praying for you!<BR/>Chris GChris Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01865093316945712493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1585426241546709009.post-58410288406989098702008-04-26T16:33:00.000-07:002008-04-26T16:33:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1585426241546709009.post-86015821714406823212008-04-25T20:46:00.000-07:002008-04-25T20:46:00.000-07:00I find I only see what God has done in my life in ...I find I only see what God has done in my life in hindsight. In the moment, it all seems like chaos and nonsense, and my temptation is to impose my own sense of order, my own sense of what ought to be. But God's call is to trust -- not only to trust that he can and will do great and beautiful things with our nothings, but that he will also let us see his work when the time is right.<BR/><BR/>On the other hand, sometimes God's work in my life is much more obvious to others than it is to myself. And God's work in your life is very obvious to me: your faithfulness, your love, your willingness to walk the road ahead of you, even without knowing exactly where it leads. I admire you, and I do my best to emulate you. That's why I'm so eager for your prayers.Br.

Uncertain times can seem like a curse, but they are such a blessing. <BR/><BR/>This past year has really been challenging for me in lots of way, but I think everything happened to me because God loves me so much and just wanted more of my attention. I had to get on my knees (Well, I actually just run into my bed and curl up, clenching my pillow) and seek Him. I'm getting closer to God every single day. He's woo'ing me in the strangest ways.<BR/><BR/>Faith, you are such an amazing person that God just needed EVEN more of your attention. That's why you were blessed with Cancer. Your strength is inspiring, and I know you have it in you to reach your dreams and then some more. I just know it. <BR/><BR/>With all my love,<BR/>SheSheAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1585426241546709009.post-32756735373778966962008-04-25T16:08:00.000-07:002008-04-25T16:08:00.000-07:00We all go through times of uncertainty.

I hadn't reached my goals of finishing college and working for a newspaper. I was so stressed out that I didn't sleep very well during this time. I lost hair and got sick a lot. It was by the grace of God that I was able to keep it together and reach my goals. <BR/><BR/>I now find myself in somewhat uncertain times. I look back on that time after my mom died and try to use the lessons learned back then to help me now. What helped me last time was God and a fierce determination to finish college and be a photojournalist. That's a tough combination that can't be beat. <BR/><BR/>I know you can do it. Trust in God and yourself.<BR/><BR/>God Bless,<BR/>JohnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
