The hard lessons....

Sometimes no matter how hard you try, you just keep falling back on all the stupid mistakes you've always struggled with. Even though I know God is holding my hand and leading me through everything I do just like I asked him to, it doesn't always help.(Romans 7:18) I think sometimes, he lets us screw up... does that make sense? I think that he might have a different kind of punishment.
You know how parents discipline their children... kinda like that. "Tough love". (Jeremiah 23:2) That thing nobody ever likes to do or experience! If God is our Father, than why wouldn't he discipline us?!
Praise God for his mercy and forgiveness! (Psalm 130:4)


Much love and many prayers,

"If You want me to" -Ginny Owens

The pathway is broken
And The signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why You brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to

Chorus:
Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise You're not through with me yet
so if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will walk through the fire
If You want me to

It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone


So When the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering Your love put You through
And I will go through the valley If You want me to


I heard this song earlier today in a very low moment and was brought up out of my pity party and into reality. I absolutely love this song and every single line spoke to my soul!
I hope you have the same hope and inspiration I felt from this!

Much love and many prayers,
