Learnin' Leanin'

Wow, what a week. Full of love, and heartache at the same time.
Sometimes I recall wondering where God was in all of it. I pleaded for Him to show Himself.
I specifically remember crying out to Him and remembering suddenly that He tells us to ask anything in HIS NAME. Meaning, if it is His will, He will do it. And so I clung to this. And you know what? It worked. I was able to turn it over to the Lord and trust Him that this was His will.

God's name be praised. Why didn't I think of this before? Not that God will give me anything I ask for just because I want it and ask it of Him. But there are some things and prayers that God really does want to give us if we will just leave it up to HIS WILL. I know that God wants to ease our heartache and comfort us and He will do it if we will just surrender. Thank you Jesus!

I have so much to be thankful for and so much to learn. I am thankful for a patient and gracious God who never gives up on me. How I wish I only didn't let Him down so much. God is always there. And He loves His children. All of them. He longs to draw them together and to Himself. May we endeavor to do this with passion.
