short and sweet .. part 1

Whenever trouble comes your way , let it be an opportunity for joy! When your faith is tested your endurance has a chance to grow, so let it grow, when your endurance is fully developed you will be strong in character and ready for anything... james 1:2

Grow , Grow, GROW!!! that was the theme for me this week .. i had to keep reminding myself that GOD was in control (thank God cause i would have lost it ) . So often , to often life is just so draining . I'm tired , the kids are buggin, im broke, i hate work , blah blah blah..
If for one moment i would just stop ... take a moment and get back to what really matters ... Loving JESUS and spending time with him !!
In every situation there is a reason and a time for joy ... just open your eyes and look around you ..
Thank you for my husband
thank you for my family ,
thank you for providing a home for me
for the food that we eat
for allowing me to see YOU in my struggles
for showing up and never leaving ..
thank you for forgiving me every time over and over and over again !!

Ask HIM to show up and show you REAL JOY , no matter the situation ...don't let the demands of this world take away your joy!
All you have to do is ask ...
