Trust

It's been one of those weeks. At the end of the week, I have nothing to say for what I have done.

I started the week feeling extremely blessed by the Lord. I bought a plaque a few months ago that says "In the strength of the Lord, I can do all things." I found this at a time when I REALLY needed to be reminded of that. Sometimes life feels so hard. Reading this every day helped me get through the day, the doctor appointments, the ear infections, the sickness, the fusiness, and the general stress these things create. With the Lord's help, I was able to get through it all, and now that Braden has been well (knock on wood), had ear tubes put in, is so much happier, I feel like the Lord is giving me a little sigh of relief, a little rest. I feel so grateful.

As a little disappointment got me down this weekend, I needed to be reminded of the blessings the Lord gives me. It was timely, because a few days prior I watched this mormon message:

Its message is trust in the Lord. Whatever the circumstance may be, when the plans you make for your life don't work out the way you want them to, trust in the Lord's plan. He knows what we need more than we do. He knows what will help us grow and become the people we need to be. Thank goodness I can hand that worry over to the Lord, and know my life is safe in His hands.
