Strength for Today, Hope for Tomorrow

Great is thy faithfulness...I don't think I really ever knew how great God's faithfulness was until this year. God put me on a journey this year that would forever change my life.  I have had heartbreak beyond what I thought I could endure but he has taught me that his grace is all that I need. (2 Corinthians 12:8)  I have had my dreams crushed but he has shown me that his plans for me are good and he wants to give me hope and a future. (Jeremiah29:11)  I have felt so weak but he showed me it is when I am weak that his power works best. (2 Corinthians 12:8)  I have discovered as I empty myself of all that I am and allow him to fill me up with all that he is that I can endure all things because it is Christ who gives me strength. (Philippians 4:13) 

I don't want to write a book on my first blog. :)  But I want to share my journey with you.  I will try to write a little each day about what God has done in my life this year, what he continues to do, and what he is showing me through my pain.  I feel like God has given me a story and I feel so compelled to share it with others. Even now as I write this I feel such joy and such heartache at the same time.  It's a strange feeling but God gives me peace through my pain.  He gives me joy as he shows me how he blesses me daily.  He gives me strength for today and hope for tomorrow.
