Trust Him

I'm feeling much better as of late. Spiritually, emotionally, but not physically. I must be coming down with something. I'm sure it will pass soon. Lots of water and saltines is my diet for now. Emily has a cold. We have to do eye and nose drops every six hours. She absolutely hates it. J leaves tomorrow and won't come back until Friday night. When he gets back, my mom will be here!! We are so excited for her to come. I wish she was coming one day earlier so I wouldn't have to stay home alone tomorrow night, but it's okay. We'll be fine because God is our provider, protector, and strength. He continues to show me his faithfulness again and again. I learned in my Bible study last night that trusting God doesn't automatically happen when you are saved. It's a process and it mostly happens from experience. Beth says "He was faithful yesterday. He'll be faithful today." Isn't it interesting how reading a book can change the way you think? For me, a book is more influential than a conversation. It seems to stick with me. Seeing the words on the page causes them to stick in my mind and I see the sentences in my head throughout the days. Transforming the way you think can be fun. It's change and I like change.
