I have these litte scripture prayer cards that i got a year or two ago. I was reading one a few minutes ago and wanted to share it. HELP ME LORD, to finally comprehend what it means to consider it pure joy whenever i face trials of many kinds. Help me to know that the testing of my faith develops perserverance. Perserverance must finish its work in me so that i may be mature and complete lacking nothing.(james 1:2-4) Lord, You are not asking me to rejoice that i have lost someone or something precious but tYou know that in my loss i can rejoice in all I have to gain if I'm willing. Never must my suffering be in vain.
This reigns so true in me. The last few months i have really struggled with who i am during this time of illness. I also struggle with knowing he has a plan through this and that I am not useless. Now i know i'm not useless but its hard for me to see it sometimes because i think of all that i use to do and am not able to do now. Sometimes it just clouds my mind and I lose sight of God and his plan. I let those negative thoughts in and they just creep in and settle and before long its not good in there. But day by Day God is showing me his plan. I know that i may not be able to dance anymore or even do laundry and household chores like i use to but God has a purpose and he's molding me into someone that meets that purpose. So your welcome along on this journey. This will be kind of a mix of my thoughts prayers and journey and how card making fits in it all.
have a blessed day
