So I didn’t really have anything to blog about today, but I really didn’t want to get in the habit of not blogging, so I just started thinking about my life. I can honestly say that I have never been in a better place than where I am today. I don’t mean my physical location, although the beautiful sunshine outside today is not bad! I mean emotionally and spiritually. I can tell you now that it has absolutely nothing to do with circumstances, and everything to do with the love of Christ. I have never had more debt or less money than I do now. Circumstances. I have never been away from my family or had less friends that I do now. Circumstances. But I have never been closer in my relationship with my husband or family. The love of Christ. I have never been more excited about the little things in life and thankful for everything. The love of Christ.
What I have learned is that it is way better when I am able to trust in the love of Christ instead of trusting that my circumstances are going to be beneficial. No matter what the circumstance, Jesus’ love remains the same. I am not confessing anything or saying this will happen but it comes down to this. Every single person I know and love could pass away. My home and everything I own could get blown away in a hurrican or other natural disaster. I could become deathly ill. All of my circumstances could be horrible and Jesus’ love would still remain. Wow. That blows me away, and you know why it blows me away? Because I believe it 100%.
God is God in the good times and in the bad. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. It really is that simple. Wow.
