Lately I’ve been finding myself riding in the car without the radio playing. I’ll be far entrenched in my thoughts before I realize that I am riding in silence and at that point I choose to let my thoughts supercede the noise of the radio.
As I was riding alone today in silence it hit me how extremely blessed I am. While my life isn’t perfect, I have finally reached a point in my life where I want for nothing and that statement has absolutely nothing to do with material things. I briefly flashed back to very hard times in my life when I was pretty sure that God had left me dangling but I held on to my faith because that was my only connection to something good when everything around me seemed to be going wrong.
I’ve told some of my story here, you think you know but you have NO idea. If God can bring me from a place of sorrow and darkness into a place of abundance and light He can do the same for you.
I’m in my feelings this evening. Can’t you tell! Keep trusting. He is faithful….If anybody knows, I know. Just make sure you are giving Him something to work with!

November 11, 2013 at 8:13 amHey Anastasia! Keep moving towards it. The reward is so great to not have to live a life of complaining and sorrow. Although we will always have issues in life when we learn how to deal with them that makes it all the better! Thanks for stopping by, don’t be a stranger!

November 10, 2013 at 3:54 pmI’m slowly coming out of that dark place (God it was REALLY dark for a while) but like you said I held on to my faith because that’s all I knew but thank you for the reminder to give Him something to work with!
