With God all things are possible

| Have you ever walked in darkness? I have , with breast cancer, identity theft, divorce, it can really take a toll on faith. When I was riding race horses in the 70s and early 80s I was pretty much the only woman in Texas, it was a battle of finding my place in a mans world.
I hungered for God to show me the way. Walking in darkness is fearful. You don't know at times how things are going to go. If like me I WANT to be in control and during these time mentioned I had none, I felt I was in quick sand ,fighting my way to the top, with no end in sight. In dark times of my life. When there is no light, we stumble around. We stump our toe, bump in a wall, or even worse, trip and fall. It's a bad thing to take a spill downward to take a fall in life.
I had an outrider Bill Gray, give me a book of God's Promises, I wore it out reading trying to get a line to pick me up out of the darkness.
It was in not until 2003 did I truly feel I saw God's truth, without the light if His revelation, I was blinded walking in darkness. I took wrong turns, made bad choices. I did my best,but quickly learned that sometimes what seemed best ended up very wrong.
You either go through life guessing making decisions based on a hunch or something you've heard, or you can turn the light on. God's. Word gives us wisdom and guidance for every situation in life. His truth lights out path and shows us where to go. Yes I was walking in darkness most of my life, in 2003 breast cancer took my body, I then understood what God had been trying to tell me. I was making decisions on my emotions, what I WANTED, not what God had planned for me. I fought my way in life and never really turned my life over to God all the way. I was fearful, insecure, felt unworthy because of some of the choices I had made in life. Not always learning from my mistakes but do continuing to make them over and over. I am so THANKFUL God allows us to make uturns, and He NEVER gives up on us. Yes I made several of Uturns If you find yourself in darkness, you can reach for a flashlight or reach for God's Word. TRUST His truth., follow His principles and walk in the light.
I DID PRAISE GOD!! April 12, 2016 I am cancer FREE! 12 years!! My identity theft after two years was done! I am a vessel for Christ. I HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT!!
Psalm 119: 105 Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. I have sworn and confirmed that I will keep Your righteous judgements, I am afflicted very much; Revive me , O Lord, according to Your Word. Accept I pray, the free will offerings of my mouth, O Lord, and teach me Your judgments. My life is continually in my hand, Yet I do not forget Your law.
For it is WITH God ALL Things are possible
Father God, guide me today to do all things that bring glory and honor to You AMEN | |

Location: Montana | Amen, thanks LJ, I needed to hear that. I'm still trying to figure out what God has in mind for me, as it seems I'm not finding the way like I'd like and am not good at making decisions as I don't know if they're the right ones. I pray for guidance, but often feel like I don't have a clear answer, and I wish I did. I'm still young and learning, even though I've been raised in faith, but sometimes I think my faith isn't strong enough. Your words are an inspiration to me. | |
