The Beauty Found In The Mess

Isn't it odd that sometimes in the hardest periods of our lives, God does His best work?

I'm convinced God doesn't dislike tough times as much as we do. Oh, He hates sin, that's for sure. And I know His heart breaks for our pain. But tough times are kind of like the pain we might feel going to the gym. It hurts while we are there, bur there is a greater good coming forth. If we position ourselves to see His hand at work, we will see it.

Trials are no fun when we are going through them, but seeing God's hand weaving the threads toward a result bigger than our circumstance is life affirming, a true blessing indeed! Honestly, I actually feel the blessing in the midst of the trial, not because of anything I do, but because of His grace. His amazing grace!

HIM receiving Glory out of this little life is WAY more important to me than...anything else! For my life to be worthy of being set apart as a testament to our Great GOD...well, that rocks my socks off more than living a life according to my own convenience.

I am thankful for the lessons of life and the beauty found in the mess!

Blessings,
