Life

You ever have those days where you want everything to just melt away with the rain? 

When the holidays you booked are so close, yet feel light-years away. I often wonder how we manage. How do we put that smile back on our faces and keep plugging on?
You know what days like that need? A cute, cuddly, FLUFFY puppy to snuggle up with - a soothing cup of tea and a warm blanket. Is there anything better than a snugly pet on a terrible day? Me thinks not.

But here's a thought, is there anything better than being able to turn to YHWH on a terrible day? It's hard to remember that no matter how tough life gets, how icky people at work can make you feel, or how much laundry piles up at home, that our Father is there. Why is that so hard to remember? I really can't understand why that's so hard for me to remember. And why can't I remember that if I work as unto YHWH everything else will fall in line? Maybe because life is a challenge...maybe because the walk of faith I have chosen can often be fraught with difficulties and struggle...
But if our God is for us? Then who could ever stop us? And if our God is FOR us then what could stand against? 

The answer?

Nothing. 

So maybe it's a cute puppy...or maybe it's time spent soaking in my Father's light.
