Life is hard


Maybe you noticed, maybe you didn't, I haven't been here since August. 
Yikes. 
I have no other explanation then to say -

"Life is hard. Then you die." 

Ha. Can you relate with that statement? 
No? Well, good for you. 
Yes? Yeah, me too. 

Life is hard.
But I'm so thankful that God sits with me right in the midst of the hard. 
I don't have to rely on my wisdom, my strength, or my fortitude. I can rely on His. 
I'm so thankful that God's shoulders are so much wider and stronger.
He holds my burdens way better than I ever could. 
Life may be hard, but my God is good.
And I'll be back soon enough.

"Don't worry about anything, but pray about everything. With thankful hearts offer up your prayers and requests to God. Then, because you belong to Christ Jesus,
God will bless you with peace that no one can completely understand.
And this peace will control the way you think and feel."
Philippians 4:6-7

...and you can thank my OT professor for that wonderful saying there.
I quote him all the time :)
