Acceptance and Assurance

"The real answer comes with embracing yourself and not necessarily trying to improve yourself."

I guess the hardest part is to leave it all in God's hands.  We are all lumps of coal or mounds of clay.  We need to let God do his work.  Sometimes there is great pressure as is necessary to turn coal into a diamond.  Other times we are stretched and squeezed like clay on the potters wheel. 

God never said that life would be easy for us.  He spoke of persecution. He also said he would be there.  It is so difficult sometimes to remember that he is walking every step with us.  Why are we so quick to forget that?  What makes us so independent that we think we can make it without Him? 

Hebrews 13:5  Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,  “Never will I leave you;  never will I forsake you.”

During the darkest days, the wildest storms and the most difficult trials. He is with me!  He loves me!  I am special to Him.  It does not matter what anyone else thinks!

God bless,
