another one from momma

hi ladies! i hope everyone is having a great month! here is another joyce snippit i received from my mom this morning, and i thought i would share it with you all. i really like it a lot. it sums up how i've been feeling lately ~ i've just been so thankful for the hard times because i know they bring about change and clarity and peace. a smooth life ~ does that exist?

mom, is this from your "ending your day right" book, by joyce? just wondering, so people can have the opportunity to buy this book if they want more...

SO OFTEN PEOPLE ARE AFRAID OF BROKENNESS, BUT, IF YOUR OUTER MAN IS BROKEN, THE POWERFUL THINGS INSIDE YOU CAN POUR FORTH....YOU MUST ALLOW GOD TO DO WITH YOU AS HE WILLS, KNOWING THAT EVERYTHING IN LIFE CHANGES.

IF YOU ARE TO HAVE STABILITY IN YOUR LIFE YOU MUST REMEMBER LIFE IS A CONTINUED PROCESS IN WHICH EVERYTHING--INCLUDING YOU--IS CONSTANTLY CHANGING. YOU MUST HOPE IN GOD, THE ONLY ONE WHO "IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY, AND FOREVER."

Thanks to Sarah's Mom for all of her gems. I have one to add that helps me each day.

Matthew 6:25-34.

Allyson ~ Love that passage you recommended! What I love about is that it gives two of the most extreme examples of defeat. Who can control the weather? And then, people who are actually demon possessed? And Christ could protect us from both! Makes my little career or relationship worries seem small!
