Heartfelt Holiday Musings

Hey there guys..Not sure who needs this ..but I know for many of us this weather has not been encouraging and the stresses of work and Covid weigh heavy. 

My friend Debbie Ferraro 's constant reminder to trust is a great example beacon and call to faith. Trust is an important part of my faith. Even when I am in that place of trust, I am always amazed at how God works in my life.  I would love to tell you that I always had this trust but that is not so.  

It’s something Our Lord is teaching me day by day.  Aren’t we lucky to know that our God is a patient and loving God.

My life hasn’t been easy.  And I know that many of you reading this can say the same.   The ups and downs, the bad seasons and the good seasons are all a part of life.  We have all had our crosses to carry. A few years ago, I was carrying a heavy cross.

There were days, when my brain wouldn’t stop sending me bad thoughts and worries, and it was those days when I needed prayers the most.  Over and over, again and again I prayed “Jesus I trust in you.  Jesus, I trust in you. Jesus, I trust in you!”

As I prayed and watched everything unfold during that crazy time, I grew in faith and trust. God was in control.  

The result might not be what I expected, but God took care to make sure that my life was my own again.  

All would be well. 

When I look back on that season of worry, I can truthfully say ‘thank you Jesus”. Thank you for taking care of me during that dragging of my Cross; thank you for teaching me to trust you Lord. I trust he will bring us through this season.
