Today Eli was singing a song around the house and after he was done he said "God will never take anything away from us". I paused and thought through how to respond...you all could have probably explained this much better. From experience though, God has surely taken things away from me. He has taken relationships, friendships, possessions, etc. At the end of the day though I know He has done it for His glory and for reasons beyond my comprehension at times. However, I am confident that He works all things out for His glory.
At the time of going through loosing something/someone emotions overwhelm my soul. I am confident though that He has used each one of these times to show Himself in all His perfection. I am grateful that He did not give up on this life long ago and I am thankful that He took many things away. Somethings I am still working on....but, I do not have to fully understand. I am okay with this. I am not God, nor would I ever want to be. So often with my actions, I try. Thankfully, I fail without question each and every time.
Anyhow, I know this post is random but it is what I have been processing today since Eli brought this question to my attention....would love to here your answers...
Thank you for praying for me. Believe me it is working!!
