Standing firm in the storms of life (continued)


It had been a difficult day-for many reasons.  I have to be honest and tell you that I was asking God over and over "why is this happening?"



I sat in my car in a grocery store parking lot and as I closed my eyes, I was reminded of words that my previous pastor, Dr. Joe Brown, had told our congregation many times.  "Prepare yourselves, if you aren't in a storm now, you will be one day.  This world is not our eternal home, and these troubles and trials are only temporary." Gods word tells us-"Do not let your hearts be troubled. TRUST in God; trust also in me.  in my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you.  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. (John 14:1-3)




You see, for me to question God,  was showing doubt that His plan is what was best for Grayson.  I wanted to fix something that couldn't be fixed in any other way than by a miracle from God.




Each morning and night, I ask God to please heal Grayson.  AND He will.  It may or may not be here on this Earth, but I know in my Father's house that He is preparing for Grayson and I, Grayson will be healed.




I'll close with another verse that I often give to those that are hurting.  This day, I lean on its truths -The Lord is close to those whose hearts are breaking. (Psalm 34:18)
