Thank You, God that You are God
You cannot lie
There is no darkness, deception, dishonesty in You
When You say that You will bring something to pass
It will surely happen
It is impossible for Your Word to fail
Forgive me for doubting
Grumbling and murmuring
You said that all things work together for good in my life
All
And You mean what you say
You are constantly using even negative situations and circumstances in my life
To set me up for success
To propel me forward in Your purposes
To make me more like You
You have not forgotten me
You cannot
For my name is engraved on the palms of Your great hands
And You have set me as a seal upon Your great heart
How it must hurt Your heart for me to ever doubt Your kind intentions towards me
My love is so weak, so fickle
Like a drop compared to the ocean of Your great love
And yet still You love me
Always, forever
Thank You, thank You, thank You.

That was beautiful. I have to remind my family and myself often, that "all things work together for good to him that loves God". That is so simple and can get you through anything. ALl you have to be concerned with, is loving God, and he takes care of the rest. What freedom! When you see your babies love God and pray to Him, you know that all things will work together for good for them, and that is peace.
