Choose this day

So it's been some time since I've been up on my blog and I'm not going to lie.....I've been going through it. So many days I've been in so much pain it was so hard for me to get up out of bed. I'm clinging on to the scripture The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trust in him and I am helped. As I posted today on my facebook there are so many things in this life that we will face that we just don't understand, and there may be some where we just want to throw up our hands in defeat asking why. Always remember the Lord is our true strength and just at that moment will see us through. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding Proverbs 3:5 Not everything is for us to understand, just know that God is doing something in our time of weakness in our time of struggle. I think back to my pregnancy with Isaac and as I do I can't help but tear up to great depths because of the pain I went through when the doctors told me my son wouldn't live past birth. Why Why Why were the questions in my heart, My heart wanted to believe something miraculous could happen but I couldn't get my mind off what the doctors told me, talk about a shattered heart. So so many people tell me about how strong they think I am and about how I encourage them with my life, but it's through those moments of weakness that I have been able to rise up and become this strong woman of God. Where I am weak he is strong, and wow have I been weak. I have made a choice to have a heart for God. Does that mean I'm guarded from pain, trials or struggles (no) but it does mean that he will see me through them. God has blessed me with so much and I desire to be closer to him with each passing day. I pray that through my struggles I can pass on the right words to help you through yours. The Lord is my strength but you can choose to have him be yours as well. Thank you for taking the time to read my thoughts, I pray in some way they encourage you. My thoughts and Prayers are with you :o) Lot's of love!
