This season of Lent has given me a lot of opportunity to focus on my life and my inner being.
The last 15 months have been tough ones. I have cried, I have complained, I have been fearful of what my life might be like if we do NOT sell our house and my family is left scattered, but at the same time this season of my life has been one of growth.
God has used this time to help me delve more into my Bible study and into my precious time with him. I start each morning with quiet time to myself to read in my Bible and journal. I find myself praying more throughout my day. I am listening to gospel music when I walk and I find myself listening more closely to the words of the gospel music on my radio as I drive. God has used song lyrics to touch my heart and speak to me just when I need it most!
Don’t get me wrong- God has not ERASED my fears, but God has done a lot to help me find comfort and strength during those moments when I do find myself fearful of what the future holds. I know that he is my guiding hand and that ultimately, HE is in control! I just need to trust in him and rest in the assurance that he will give me the strength to deal with whatever comes!
