When we can’t trace His hand trust His heart

If you look at the news and what is going on in the world and how more and more people are rejecting God and His truths it can seem like things are going crazy.  Sometimes it can seem when you are going through hard times or when God doesn’t give you what you want or are praying for (whether it be marriage or somebody else it can be hard to see and understand what God is doing.  No matter what we are going through though God is still good!  He still holds us and our future in His Hands! One song that my mentor Mary Kaye sang and introduced to me is called “Trust His heart.”

Here are some of the lyrics I’ve been thinking about lately.

“When you don’t understand, when you can’t see His plan, when you can’t trace His hand trust His heart!”

“Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. I’m all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:5-6

    God is good all the time and has a plan for our lives. Sometimes life is difficult but God never fails. We can always trust that He knows what is best for us.

Perfect peace

The wind. The rain. The clouds.  Sunsets.  Cool air. To some people those things might not bring a sense of peace and comfort but to me it’s amazing.  It’s so peaceful and beautiful.  I could stay outside all the time when it’s like that. Peaceful.  Calming.  But there’s a peace that’s even greater than that.  There is a peace that can only come from Christ.  There is a peace that passes all understanding. “The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect  peace, Because he trusts in You.” Isaiah 26:3 "And the peace of God, which surpasses all [ a ] comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."  Philippians 4:7 "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful."  John 14:27   "O Lord , You have searched me and known me . You know [ a ] when I sit down and [ b ] when I rise up...

It’s a new year

Man I’ve turned 35.  I’m another year older. I guess it’s only downhill from here I guess or uphill haha.  I’d like to say I’m another year wiser and that I’m more like Christ and I definitely think I’m more like Christ. I think God has given me more wisdom also.  I’m just not anywhere near where I want to be.  Today was just another day really.  I didn’t really do much to celebrate it.  I went to Starbucks with a sweet friend who gave me a present.  I was kind of disappointed that I didn’t really have a party or anything even though other friends had had parties.  I realized that I was just being selfish and self focused. Sometimes I feel like I’m invisible or that people don’t notice me as much but even that is being self focused.  I was wanting a party so I could be with people and celebrate but I was also just wanting attention. I was thinking about this one time one of my friends Kaycee had one of our friends Laura make me a cake for m...

My journey of Faith and how God has guided me

Image
                           “A man’s heart plans his way but the Lord directs His steps.”  Proverbs 16:9 I’ve been thinking about this verse a lot lately and how true it has been in my life.  When I went home for Christmas after I graduated with my MDiv in Missions in December my plan was to find a biblical counseling internship somewhere.  I had looked different places but nothing had worked out. I looked on the biblical counseling website which is the website for the Association of Certified Biblical Counseling.  I had looked at Washington and it didn’t work out and I looked in Oregon and one of the first names I saw was Mitch Lamotte.  On December 29 I emailed Mitch Lamotte from Southwest Hills Baptist Church about doing a biblical counseling internship at their church.  He told me about the biblical counseling pastor at the church, Kerry Francetice. ...
