I am just thinking today about how it is human nature to want things just to be good all the time or most of the time. When difficult times come up we wonder why is this happening or why did this happen to me or this isn't fair. But through out history amazing things have come out of trying times or uncertain times. When I think of difficult times in my life I just wanted them to dissappear and go away. But as I began to understand that God is always with me. In the good times and in the bad times, I began to understand that God has an awesome plan in my life and just because I didn't understand what was happening didn't change the fact that God was with me and He was never going to leave me or abandon me. His Grace is enough.When I was in the hospital this past year, I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to walk again. I was devastated I was wondering God where are you, I am trusting you it feels like you have abandoned me, but "He" had not. He was with me, bringing me strength and courage day by day minute by minute. People would call, send cards fix meals, cry with me, or just sit with me. I have found that so many times people don't know what to say or do so they stay away. Just being there means so much. You don't have to say anything.                              
                  The book of James talks about difficulties and hard times. There is a process at work and if we hang in there one day at a time sometimes one minute at a time we will see that the situation is working it's way out for our good.  I have learned this 1) Trust God in all things. 2) live one day at a time. 3) God is for me and never against me. 4) God has a awesome plan for my life even when it doesn't look like it.
