He's Already There

Thanks to God for all He has done! I am so blessed and thankful! God has shown me that because of  what He did for us through Jesus, I should be thankful no matter the circumstances. The trials and hard times in this life can be overcome because He is for me and not against me. Trust in Him through those times, though it may be hard and feel like you are alone, trust in what He says in His word is the truth. Often times our "feelings" will lead us astray but stand fast in His word and know He will never leave you nor forsake you. If He has taught me one thing over the past year or so it is that He sees the whole picture. I can only see the present and remember the past, but God knows the future. I love the song, "Already There". It speaks of God seeing our whole lives, He's standing at the end of our lives looking from the other side, He knows and holds our future! So, when I become nervous or worried about the future or the chaos of my life, He gently reminds me "Amy, I am already there". He holds my future. And as Jeremiah 29:11 proclaims He has plans to prosper us and not to harm us and to give us a future that is full of hope!

My heart is to make a difference in this world. To touch it, even if in a small way, for the good of God's  kingdom. Hopefully at the end of my life God will say, "Well done". I don't always succeed at this or claim to make all the right choices, but I know who holds my future and that one day that future will include eternity with Him! On that day, when God and I look back on my life, I pray I honored Him with my life!
