A gift to me!

Have you ever just needed to know that you have done the right thing? A while ago I did something that was truly one of the hardest things I have ever done. I only did it after MUCH prayer and finally (after putting it off again and again) had to do it to be obedient. Ever since then there have been times I have agonized over what had transpired and I doubted myself. I believed I was obedient to the Lord's prompting but my fleshy self still wondered. But we serve a good and faithful God and over the past month I have been give confirmation after confirmation that I had done the right thing. It has come in the sweetest ways such as talking with other people that have said to me "I am right there with you, keep praying"--people I didn't even know!!! and some that I did! and yesterday sitting in church our pastor confirmed it. He said after praying about something speak the truth in love and back it with scripture! He didn't know of my situation, how my broken heart was slowly starting to mend, but he spoke straight to my heart! As tears filled my eyes, I realized the band aid I needed wasn't that big anymore and I said a great big THANK YOU to our most AMAZING GOD!!! He always knows exactly what we need!!

I cannot tell you the number of times Rayden says to me, "don't doubt in the darkness what you heard in the daylight." I guess it's easier said than done when it comes to standing on God's promises instead of our shiftng feelings, huh!?

Isn't He amazing?!? So glad that you were prayerful and stuck with what you knew to be true.
