Jesus, Be My Center

Well another week has passed. Whew.... I didn't think I was going to make it! My allergies have been acting up and my throat has been killing me. Plus I had to work two extra days. Which is normally a good thing, but not so much when you don't feel well.

But I feel ashamed for complaining when I think of that awful flood at that campground in Arkansas. We need to keep the families of those folks in our prayers. Hopefully they will find more people who survived.

At times like this you wonder how a good and powerful God could let something like that happen. Somehow we can get to feeling like God turned his back, or we wonder if He cares.

GOD DOES CARE! ALWAYS! Somehow, even in the darkest times, we must trust that whatever He has allowed was somehow for our good and for His glory. We need to remember that we can't see the whole picture (yet).

It is a far worse scenario to think that God is up there and has no control on what is going on. How could a being like that even be called God. God, by his very nature, is in control of all things. And we know that God is good and loving ALL THE TIME.

By faith, we need to keep going on. We need to pray for those in need and comfort those who need comforting. Our Heavenly Father will bring us home one day and then we will understand. And we will see that it was good.

Until next time, God Bless You!
