Fun...we can hold each other accountable.<br /><br />God really has done a "stripping away" process for you this year. I know it made for a very confusing, searching, painful year and I am sorry to have seen you hurt through it. It makes me VERY curious to see what he has for you....its gonna be good.<br /><br />"God is using your present circumstances to make you more useful for later roles in his unfolding story."

I like the part where you...Sara what a great post. I like the part where you said " Everything that I felt I could control has been ripped out of my hands over the last year and now I find myself in a place where all I have is my trust in God." It reminds of a couple of years ago when hubby and I were going through a very bad time and I realed all the things I thought we were controlling, had never been under my control. It was startling but still a lesson I needed to learn. God will be with you every step of the way and will lead you as you let Him.<br /><br />I too felt like I needed to participate in the Beth Moore Memory Challenge. I have tried in the past but always quit and gave up. I'm hoping I'll stick with it this time. I really feel this was God calling me to it this time and not just me wanting to do what everyone else is doing. In fact, I really didn't want to try and fail again. But I just couldn't seem to get away from it. <br /><br />I chose to memorize the 139th Psalm. There are 24 verses and I love how it talks about how well He knows me. And yet, He still loves me and He'll never leave me. That is so awesome to me. And I guess while it doesn't actually use the word trust, I know I can trust Him because it talks about him going behind and in front of me. And if he's always with me, I can trust Him to take care of me. <br /><br />Praying 2015 will be a year that we both grow closer to God!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04662751045378148853noreply@blogger.com
