I know it has been quite a awhile since I have posted. After Neal passed I was so busy with paper work, working at the office, the holidays followed and then Dale passed. After those events I found myself snow bound and in a slump. I think the reality of Neal’s death has really set in and I find myself dealing more with my grief. I felt almost paralyzed to get on the blog. But in God’s perfect timing I am involved in a bible study by Priscilla Shirer, Beth Moore and Kay Arthur called “Anointed, Transformed, Redeemed” a study about David. The lesson this week was about moving past our devastation with God. David was angry and afraid with God because he thought he was doing something right by bringing the ark back and his friend ended up dying. I don’t think its wrong to have those feelings but as our study pointed out a healthy fear and anger draws us toward God. An unhealthy fear and anger of God draws us away from Him. I found myself recoiling and questioning God’s plan, which is unhealthy. We all put our faith in something so I choose to put mine in God. I know His ways are greater than mine and I trust Him even when I don’t understand. Psalm 126:6 says, “Those who go out weeping will return with songs of joy.” So I am choosing to move past my devastation and ask God to bless me. God is trustworthy.
What have you put your trust in?
On the journey,
Trish
