the faith in us

I was searching for another verse today and I came across this verse from Proverbs:

Hear, my son, your father's instruction,
And do not forsake your mother's teaching;
Indeed, they are a graceful wreath to your head,
And ornaments about your neck. Proverbs 8-9


I've prayed and I've thanked the Lord above for putting me in this family of mine. I love them all. I wouldn't want to be in any other family except this one. Love trumps all. Love is aces! We are a strong circle that shall not be broken. We will continue to love, respect, listen, understand one another at all times. We will pray for one another in rough times. We will forgive one another if harshness gets the best of us.

Things in life are not to worry about. I used to,literally, live every moment with stressful thoughts. I mean so much that I didn't sleep peacefully for hours sometimes days. I didn't eat right, I pretty much refused vitamins. Everything that crossed my path was bothersome to me in some way. I mean everyday things, everyday life was a challenge. I would lay in bed all night grinding my teeth. I would wake up in the morning and my jaw would hurt so much. I would tell myself "hard" things about myself. It wasn't so nice, my life then.

Now I thank God for my faith, my obedience in following him, I thank him for sending his one and only Son to die on the cross for us, for the Holy Spirit-the comforter. Without them life would be dark. Jesus is the light, the truth, and the way.

I can without one tiny doubt,that by praying and having a relationship with God can change your life in ways you never thought were even possible, logical, reasonable, or realistic. Truly, you must activate your relationship with God yourself. Take that bold step towards him. In time you will see life in a whole new way. Have faith-believe it before you see it!
