Luke 22-23 My Log! Oh how I worry about having what my family needS, I do not miss all of the stuff. It is truly freeing being a minimalist by fire, it does hurt to think that I have zero copies of babys first hand and foot prints and all of our photos etc. There is always some thing to miss. But they are all things and God has provided in a mighty way throughout our lives, and it is a shame that I allow my mother hen/nesting instincts to go against His teachings! It is true that this year has been one trial after the other, it is true that my grandmother was my second parent, my namesake, a hand in the molding of me and a light in my life. It is true that I have had treasures of worldly value burn to ash. It is true that we lost our only vehicle and had to purchase a new one without the help of insurance. It is true that we had to hire a lawyer because our insurance company is acting in bad faith and it is true that I do not believe in suing etc. But God has been in every tiny detail. Teaching me, growing me, stretching me past the breaking point, and teaching me that HE DOES give us more than we can handle so that we will learn to rely on Him to handle it!! I am repenting of my actions and worries that make me doubt God or act as if I am God! And although this should be a blog, here I am. I need to also remind myself when I feel as if I do not belong anywhere that I may go, including the feeling of not being comfortable in my own skin, that I am His and I am where He has called me. Faith is comforting, and Faith in Jesus and our Heavenly father is all that I need! Now to remember this during my next panic moment, that is the test!!!
