Things...

Life is not always what it seems.
There are things beneath the surface.
That sometimes come up.
Things you wish wouldn't.
Things you wish would dissapear.
Things you just don't want to deal with.
But you have to.
Whether you like it or not.
You have too.
Then there are things beneath the surface.
That sometimes come up.
Things that you like.
Things that bring you happiness
Things that are wonderful.
Things...such a general word.
Could be anything.
Good, bad, ugly, beautiful, hurtful,encouraging.
Things.
Physical things.
Emotional things.
Things that bother you.
Things that don't.
Things come.
Things go.
You get things.
You give things.
Whatever things may be.
Wherever things may come from.
Things can be burdening.
Things can be easy.
Things may involve people.
Things may not.
Whatever things may enter or lives, or come up in our pathes. We can be assured of this:

"As for me, I will call upon God, And the Lord shall save me. Evening and morning and at noon I will pray and cry aloud, And He shall hear my voice. He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, for there were many against me. God will hear and afflict them." Psalm 55:16-19a


I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress; My God in Him I will trust.
Surely he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, And from the perilous pestilence.
He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield.
You shall not be afraid of the terror of night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day,
Nor of the pertilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place,
No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling.
Psalm 91 :2-6,9-10.

In all things that come to the surface, whether they be good, bad, ugly, beautiful, hurtful or encouraging. We can have full faith that their is One who knows it all. And knows how these things came up, and knows how they will turn out. He knows. Because He is the One who reigns on High.

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowlege Him And he shall direct your paths."
Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust is a beautiful thing.
I will trust you again.

"And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ, forgave you." Ephesians 4:32.

Forgiveness is a beautiful thing.
You are forgiven.

Love each other. Like God loves us. Pass the love on. So that we may all feel the beautiful love of God.

Love is a beautiful thing.
I love you....all.


Peace,
