At this point, I have no choice but to wonder where God is in my situation. There is a part of me that has faith that God will come through, but there is another part of me who truly feels God has totally forgotten about my situation. When the New Year was approaching, I felt a fire inside of me. I was totally convinced, and felt in my spirit that this was going to be year of great miracles and wonders. Now I find myself wondering if maybe I was mistaken. A quarter of the year is over, and while there are some areas that have improved, it seems like every day another wave is crashing against my ship. Bad news, bad attitudes, and bad situations keep arising.
At times, I applaud myself at my ability to keep my composure and faith in the midst of all the negativity. Other days, it's a wonder that I don't just fold up and give up. I always try to have words of encouragement but today I am almost at a loss. The best encouragement I can muster up is to say that the storm can not last always. One day, be it tomorrow or ten years from now, the storm has to let up. So if you are going through your own storm, know that there is sunshine waiting on the other side.
