Then Jesus said, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?” John 11:40

But God…….

4 weeks ago my life changed forever. I received news that brought me down to my knees, literally. And I remained there for hours. My nephew took his life. I thought my faith would not help me or sustain me because the pain I felt was indescribable. My heart broke.

But God……..

A couple of weeks ago my company eliminated my job. I’m a divorced mom. I’m a homeowner. I’m in debt because of my divorce. I’m the sole provider.

But God……

Every area of my life has been changed within a year. It felt as though as soon as I was about to settle into my new life something happened. Just when I thought the storm was over, a hurricane developed and tried to destroy me. But I was not destroyed. Right when I thought I had loss everything and my mind was next, my faith kicked in.

“But if I were you, I would appeal to God; I would lay my cause before him. He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed,miracles that cannot be counted. Job 5:8-9

God has been an ever present help in my life. There is no way that I would have been able to endure the things I have if it was not for my faith in God. Yes, tears fall everyday but they do not consume me. Yes, I am still heartbroken but I’m not broken. I am a strong woman of God.

So remember hard times will happen. Your faith will be tested. But remain strong in the Lord. He will never leave you nor forsake you. He loves you and he will sustain you. You will see his glory come to be in your life.

Be incredibly blessed today my friend.

Love you,

Kelly
