Here goes! This has been a few months coming. I just feel like God has been pushing me to do some writing and although I can't imagine why, who am I to tell Him no? My goal for the blog is a little bit of our crazy life on the farm and off but also a whole lot of grace... a whole lot about God's great grace. For example, along with working the farm and raising two amazing kiddos, I also have a network marketing team of almost 200 people that I do my best to train and lead. Lately, I have been struggling with finding the balance of it all and I've been left with feelings of anxiety and fear of failure. Now I know that God's Word says "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." 2 Timothy 1:7 BUT life is a daily struggle. So last evening, sitting in church, our awesome pastor mentioned a verse that God used to grab me. It's a verse that I had memorized as a child and that I can still sing to a tune. But I hadn't thought to claim it for my current season of life until now! "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28 This verse reminds me that ALL things will work together for good. It doesn't say that all good things work together for good. Just all things. Some things will be bad, some will be overwhelming, some will cause fear or frustration. But as long as I keep my focus on my Savior and I spend time with Him, He promises that it will all work out best for His plan. And that is enough for me today. Now, remind me of everything I just wrote in this post tomorrow. Okay? Until next time! :)
