Hang On! God’s Got This!

Oh friend, I don’t know what you are going through today. But I do know this: God is not surprised or worried. He’s got this.

I’ll admit, I’ve had quite a month.

For starters, someone created a fake Facebook page using my name, my pictures and my identity. If I didn’t know better, I’d think it was the enemy himself (John 10:10).

The page look very authentic. The identity thief pretended to be me, and asked for money to support an orphanage in a third world country. Praise God for one of my blog readers who alerted me to the situation. Facebook has finally taken the page down. (By the way, I will NEVER ask you for money. So if you receive an email with my name on it that is doing so, it is not from me.)

Then last week I fell off of a six-foot ladder while trimming dead limbs from a tree and sprained a few limbs of my own. That will put a crimp in your dance moves.

Today I got a cute little steroid shot in my shoulder for a bone spur. Ouch. That was a first. Hopefully it was a last.

You know, life just happens. As my friend Mary Southerland says, “Life is just so daily.” But here’s the thing, God is right there with us through it all…and we can trust Him! God is never stymied by your past, surprised by your present, or worried about your future. (Click to Tweet)

Today, I want to share part of a sermon by Pastor Shadrach Meshah Lockridge that I heard about 20 years ago. With the power of the Holy Spirit oozing from every pore, he spontaneously proclaimed various names of God.  As you read his description, be reminded that God holds the keys to unlock every difficult situation,  the resources to provide for every need, and balm to heal every hurt.

Here’s what Brother Shadrach asked his congregation that Sunday morning years ago:

“Do you know my King?”

My King was born King
He’s the King of the Jews. He’s the King of Israel.
He’s the King of righteousness. He’s the King of the ages.
He’s the King of heaven. He’s the King of glory.
He’s the King of Kings. And He’s the Lord of Lords.

 David said the heavens declare the glory of God,
And the firmament showeth forth His handiwork.
My King is the only One whom no means of measure can define His limitless love.
No far seeing telescope can bring into visibility the coastline of His shoreless supplies.
No barriers can hinder Him from pouring out His blessing.

He’s enduringly strong. He’s entirely sincere
He’s eternally steadfast. He’s immortally graceful.
He’s empirically powerful. He’s impartially merciful.
He’s Gods Son.

He’s the sinner’s Savior.
He’s the centerpiece of civilization. He’s unique.
He’s unparalleled. He’s unprecedented.
He’s supreme. He’s preeminent.
He’s the miracle of the age.

He’s the superlative of everything good that you choose to call Him.
He’s the only one able to supply all of our needs simultaneously.
He supplies strength to the weak.
He’s available to the tempted and the tried.
He sympathizes and He saves. He heals the sick.
He cleanses the lepers. He forgives sinners.
He discharges debtors. He delivers the captive.
He defends the feeble. He blesses the young.
He serves the unfortunate. He regards the aged.
He rewards the diligent. He beautifies the meek.

Do you know Him?
My King is the key to knowledge.
He’s the well spring of wisdom. He’s the doorway of deliverance.
He’s the pathway of peace. He’s the roadway of righteousness.
He’s the highway of Holiness. He’s the gateway of glory.
He’s the master of the mighty. He’s the captain of the conquerors.
He’s the head of the heroes. He’s the leader of the legislators.
He’s the overseer of the overcomers. He’s the Prince of Princes.
He’s the King of Kings. He’s the Lord of Lord.
That’s my king.

His promise is sure. His light is matchless.
His goodness is limitless. His mercy is everlasting.
His love never changes. His word is enough.
His grace is sufficient. His reign is righteous.
His yoke is easy and His burden is light.

Well I wish I could describe Him to you.
He’s indescribable. He’s incomprehensible.
He’s invincible. He’s irresistible.
The heavens can’t contain Him.
Let alone a man explain Him.
You can’t out live Him.
And you can’t live without Him.

 The Pharisees couldn’t stand Him.
But they found out they couldn’t stop Him.
Pilot couldn’t find any fault in Him.
The witnesses couldn’t get their testimonies to agree.
Herod couldn’t kill Him.
Death couldn’t handle Him.
The grave couldn’t hold Him.

He always has been and He always will be.
He had no predecessor, and He’ll have no successor.
There was no body before Him and there’ll be no body after Him.
You can’t impeach Him and He’s not going to resign.
That’s my King!

Hallelujah! Now here’s my question to you: Do you TRUST Him today? If so, leave a comment and say, “I’m trusting God!” I’m going to randomly pick one comment and send her a FREE copy of Trusting God.

    1. I trust God with all of my heart. We just found out a month ago, my husband Gary has colon/rectal cancer. It has been a roller coaster ride of emotions waiting to find out if it is malignant and if surgery is required. July 3rd will be his surgery. In times like these we really need Jesus. And I’m know He know the outcome and I am going to rest in His peace.

      1. I’m trusting the LORD for my son Gabriel to commit every area of his life over to the LORD(I AM That I AM- I Will Be What you Need Me to Be) That my son will not marry the wrong girl. He is dating an unbeliever right now & has talked about them getting married:( (she is Asian and was raised to worship Buda:( she is a very nice girl & has good morals & seems to love & care about my son. But we know it won’t work without Jesus Christ being in both of their lives & in the center of their relationship.

    2. I am trusting God! The scriptures tell us that those that trust in the Lord shall not be disappointed and to trust in the Lord with all our heart and lean not to our own understanding…in all our ways to acknowledge Him and He will direct our paths! Thank you Jesus for the power of your Word!!!!

    3. I am so trusting God! Thank you Sharon for sharing your difficulties. Sometimes we think people in your position don’t have difficulties (as if you weren’t human or something) The Lord is the only one we can trust He will NEVER fail us!!!!! And what I find so awesome is when He says something He won’t go back on His word!!!!

    4. He stayed with me in my darkest hours which were many over the years He carried me with his footprints when I could no longer go on my TRUST in MY LORD WILL ALWAYS BE He payed the supreme sacrifice on the cross how can we not Trust Him

    5. Thank you so much for your message. I am trusting God. I am facing a number of medical challenges during this past month and with God’s help I am getting through it. Before I found God I would have been a vegetable trying to get through something like this. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”. Thank you so much.

    6. as long as I lean on him, circumstances will not overwhelm me. Praise him, praise his holy name! (the first few lines of my comment seems to have disappeared, I am unable to take time to redo them at this time…hopefully they will show up?)

    7. After reading this blog, I realized I’m really Not trusting God. I want so much to turn it all over to Him and stop the anxiety and worry. Today I will choose to trust Him.

    8. i trust God to help me Testire my life! I had a fire two months ago and he spared my life throgh it but i lost everything! I had no renters insurance yet because i just moved in and now the insurance company wants to sue me! I’m trusting God will protect me from this law suit and provide me with a new home and new items for my home! I’m trusting that he will help me use this tragedy for his glory and to build a ministry to help others that have fires!

    9. I am trusting God! I know that He has not brought me thus far to leave me. Through all the trials and tests, I know that He will bring me through as in the past!!

    10. I have to trust Him and it can be so difficult. My 2 adult children have gone their own ways. My son got divorced and has a 4-yr-old son whom he doesn’t have much of a relationship with; his ex is a gem and my best friend. I’m estranged from him because of the sin and willful disobedience in his life towards the God that he grew up worshipping and accepting. And now our daughter, who’s in Germany, is getting a divorce from another gem of a person. These last 4 yrs have taken their toll on us, me especially with health issues. I go through bouts of depression and then see glimmers of hope. But my husband and I have said and done all we can do – we’ve given them to God to take care of it. Still it’s hard to watch when you know what the answer is – and you know they know it also but sin is too fun. Trust and obey – for there’s no other way.

  1. I am trusting God in a very dry, difficult season of my life. Would love a copy of the book to read as I go through this journey. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful message about knowing the king.
    Praying for a quick recovery. By the way, I had a steroid shot in my knee – mine wasn’t so small and cute! It hurt so bad and I hope to never have to do that again. Stay off the ladder!

  2. My husband, Alan, just returned to work after being off for 4 months (having had 2 surgeries) and I have been off work for 4 months also. I resigned after trying to return to work having filed for Social Security Disability over 2 years ago. I had my hearing with the social security judge May 14, 2014. Our income currently is just barely enough to survive and hang on, but we are hanging on to the promises of God. During the time that my husband and I have been off (he just returned to work on Sunday 6-22-2014) we both began watching christian television and I began to show Alan some of my favorite pastors that have encouraged me in my journey with God. Well, my husband had been raised Methodist as a child, but had never been baptized or born again. Well, during the 4 months off, our family was blessed because both my husband and my twin 10 year old daughters got baptized ! (A note…. I also got baptized again… as my daughters asked me if we could do this as a family… I spoke to our pastor about this even though I had already been baptized…. and I decided that I too wanted a new birth for our future together as a family! I thank God for his mercies and grace because we are “not defeated” and God shall supply our every need according to his riches and glory! Alan and I and Brooke and Leslie (my twins) are holding on…. but we are holding on to God Almighty …. our creator….. our King…. and we are accepted into the Beloved and we have all things with God and Great is Our Peace! Shalom and thank you for your inspiration! Respectfully, Jill Elaine Parish

    1. I AM TRUSTING GOD, NOW, TODAY, TOMORROW AND ALWAYS. I WILL TRUST MY GOD FOR AS LONG AS I LIVE. TRUSTING AND OBEYING MY GOD

    2. Just read this now, four months after you shared what is happening in your life. I needed to see how God took physical disabilities and financial struggles and brought something eternal out of it. I need that too. I want God, in the aftermath of breast cancer and heart problems, to show me which way to go now so that His glory is revealed. Thank you for sharing. Mary

  3. I’m trusting God! I am so thankful for all the attributes and names given here for my Lord. As I look back over my life and see the different things that have and are occuring,,,I see God in the midst of them, How has worked through everyone of them (whether they were good or bad) and uses them to make me better able to serve Him. He is an awesome God!

  4. “I cried out to the Lord during the battle and He heard my prayer and answered me because I trusted in Him.”

    No matter my circumstances, Lord I will trust in your Will for my life.

    You Lord Jesus are bigger than the cancer and I will walk in your ways and look for you in the suffering. Help me to finish strong in you.

  5. I really needed that! God has really been providing so much peace two months ago I had to leave an abusive marriage. I am now bouncing homeless living in a motel I can’t afford God continues to be my focus I love Him and I know He loves me!
    I am blessed to bless others as I can! I pray all the time as they’re on my heart many ministries as well as pastors and the unified body of Jesus Christ.
    I know of SM Lockridge they have a powerful rock remix can really stoke my fire thank you for sharing!
    The JOY of the Lord is my strength… it doesn’t matter what I do and do not have I can always bless someone who needs it if I make that decision!
    Love you Sharon!
    Theresa Young

    1. Theresa, Fourteen years ago I was where you are now. Keep trusting in God. He is able to do more that you can think or ask. He has blessed me and my children so much. It hasn’t been easy but for the “Peace” we have now, it was worth it. I will keep you in my prayers.

  6. Sharon,
    What a fantastic article to start my morning! Amen, hallelujah, so true, to it all.
    The one thing I can personally share is without Him I would not be here today!
    He is all, does all but most importantly He’s my best friend!
    I cannot imagine not having Him in my life!!

    Be blessed, speedy recovery and it’s a great feeling to know He has our backs!!!

    Hugs!

    Linda

  8. YES! I trust Him.. even though life continues to be awfully trying and difficult, I trust the Lord will get me through.

  9. Thank you for this! I am trusting God in the face of both mine and my husband’s current back issues. God has this!

  10. I am trusting God, he knows all my sorrow and concern for our children, he will strengthen and guide me through this trying time.

  11. This was beautifully written…especially for those of us going through daily challenges of “LIFE”. Never ceases to amaze me how God puts different people with spiritual and uplifting words and/or passages in our pathway – right when we need them. Often providing a message we truly need to heed. That’s my God!!

  12. I’m trusting Him with my every hurt and bruises! This was what I needed today to hear and sink within my soul for comfort and strength for my next major fight. I don’t fight this giant by myself; but with the best strengthener behind me my King, King Jesus.

  13. I am going to trust my King today! Thank you for that timely word of encouragement. He knew just what I needed this morning.

  14. I’m trusting God. He is able, He is capable, He is my Savior and I shall trust in Him. God bless. Have a great day and be careful. Love ya

  15. Had I not trusted God, I wouldn’t be here today. I don’t know what he has in store for me but I’m holding on (by a thread) to find out.

  16. I’m trusting God!!!! I’ve been unemployed since Dec2013. My life partner Mark has been unemployed for 4years total doing odd jobs now and then is a recovering alcoholic. God lifted that curse from him after 20 disabling years and several rehab centers and he’s now almost 4 years completely sober. He’s looking for work w/o unemployment…I have unemployment but is over in a2 weeks. He’s learning how to live life sober and doing well. I’m learning to deal with degenerative spine and joint disease and keep going. We both have faith thatGod is going to put us to work and use us for His glory some how and we will keep going. That’s what it’s all about…keeping the faith and trusting that He will provide…and He has and He will!! Meanwhile Mark is going to AA meetings with his testimony of how God took the curse away and before was wasting away. He has touched many lives. Isn’t that work for God’s glory? I’ve been able to be there for several friends who had spiritual struggles and volunteer at different functions that if I were working I wouldn’t have had time for. Isn’t that working for God’s glory? It may not bring in paychecks but He is using us and we’re working and trusting. He has already provided in so many ways that we have no fear that we will keep going!! Have faith..keep trusting no matter how things seem. It’s a glorious feeling!!! God bless.

  17. I’m trusting God. I have a heavy load that I am surrendering to Him. I trust that he will work things out according to His will and plan. Jed 29:11

  18. I’m TRUSTING GOD! Today and everyday!

    Thank you, Sharon, for all you do!
    You are SO APPRECIATED, here in Texas!!!

  19. I’m trusting God with all my heart mind and soul and whatever my circumstances that I’m going through I KNOW HE GOT THIS!!

  20. I needed this today, going through cancer last year and then just last week having another cancer scare, (test yesterday revealed it is nothing, praise God!) this is just a reminder to me that He DOES know what is and is to come and “He’s got this!” I’m making a copy and putting up in my office to see everyday as a reminder. Thank you!

  21. I trust Him with my whole heart. I am constantly looking to increase my heart so I trust Him ever deeper and wider than I already do. He is such a good and faithful God. Still trying to wrap my arms around what He has chosen for me to accomplish for Him. His faith in me astounds me. I am blessed to be a blessing. I pray I reach those He has called me to touch. That requires me to trust Him more. He is simply irresistible.

  22. I am trusting God,June has been a terrible month for me physically I have been having terrible back problems, but the Bible talks about God making the crooked paths straight and I am trusting Him to do just that with my health situation.

  23. I had a tugging heart in the last few weeks about my sister whom I haven’t seen or spoke for last 5 years due to a circumstance situation. My daughter talked to me few days ago ;begging me; to set aside our differences because she wanted see us be friends and love one another.

    That isntance moment; I knew it was a challenge given to me from God! I knew I have a test to Show God by trusting Him in seeing my sister again. I prayed and asked God to guide and comfort me. Yes, it was very difficult and butterflies in my stomach too. I asked my family be there with me for support and especially my husband, too. We all met my sister last night. I knew God put me at ease and comfort with in me. I saw my daughters face, when I was more than willing to hug my sister, I could see Gods face on my daughterj precious smiling and approval of my doing to show my love for my family and show them to “forget” the past! PRAISE. GOD!! ; )

  24. “I’m trusting God.” I have had many challenges in my lif the past 2 years,,,,I know He will give me what I need.

  25. Yes! YES! YES I do trust him! Jesus is my daily walk.He is my SAVIOR, HE is my LORD, He is my KING, He is my STRENGTH, HE is my He us my REDEEMER , HE is my STRONGHOLD! JESUS IS MY EVERYTHING.

  26. I am trusting God! I have to, there is no other option, he is the only option. Yeshua reigns supreme over my circumstance

  27. I’m trusting God! Help me trust you Lord! Private school. Home school. College around the corner. As soon as one bill is paid up another is looming around the corner. I’m trusting you God, help me trust you Lord. We have to do some family surgery on the budget….what goes? Why can’t we live within our means…..I’m trusting you Lord. Help me trust you Lord. Help my unbelief.

  28. I’m trusting God! God’s got this.
    I love your blog Sharon, your messages always encourage me. They’re eerily dead on with exactly what I need to hear. How do you do that? haha

  29. I’m trusting God. This morning I woke up around 5:30 am, I live in El Salvador Central America. I read this beautiful message and realized what a great way to start my day this was. And well as you mentioned my week hasn’t been good, my two kids have been burning up with fever ever since Monday and well I’m starting to fill tired my husband is having serious financial issues at his company but for sure now I know that God’s got this! Thank you Lord for sending this message through Sharon bless her!

  30. Once again, your blog has perfect timing. With our wedding a week away, I’ve found myself getting a bit frazzled even though I know God has definitely got everything under His control. He has lead us every step of the way in planning for our union and we are so richly blessed. I’m trusting God to carry us through this and our life together. Thank you!

  31. I’m Trusting God! For so many things. Thank you for this today! I needed it more than ever. Sometimes you just need a reminder of things you already know but are too distracted by your circumstances to remember. Thank you so much! I’M TRUSTING GOD TODAY AND ALWAYS!

  32. In the midst of the turmoil I am trusting God
    In the midst of peace I am trusting God
    In the midst of illness I am trusting God
    With every walk through life I learn more and more how sweet it is to say “I am trusting my God”

  33. Is it weird that I read this in the beautiful accent of the narrator of the video of this? My favorite you tube of all! And yes, I really am trusting God for a miracle today.

  34. I am trusting God! This devotional comes at the perfect time for me… Just this past Sunday in my small group, we talked about the different names of God, and using those to pray through and study about Him. Both my husband and I commented in class, and then discussed later, that praying through “God’s names”, his “resume’ ” if you will, doesn’t really help us spiritually or ‘click’ with us… Fast forward to last night’s spontaneous sermon that led our Worship Leader to sing a song entirely about God’s names (Jehovah Jirreh, Jehovah Shammah, etc.)… and then this morning I open my email to see your devotional, front and center, sharing a sermon ALL about God’s Names. I get it God, I hear you, and I WILL trust you… Time for me to start studying His names!

  35. Thank you Sharon! I needed to read this today! Praise God, He is faithful and true and cannot deny Himself and I/We can trust Him. I’m trusting Him today!

  36. You know Sharon, I really needed this today. This was my “something good that happened to me today!” I always look for help each day by saying this each morning. Several times! This was the start of my “something good.” “HE” is all we need, ‘entirely.’

  37. Hi Jayne,
    Glad you found out about that fake FB page, praying your arm is better soon.
    I’m trusting God!
    The phrase “I believe, please help my unbelief” comes to mind.
    Thanks!
    Michelle

  38. I so needed this! I have 2 small children a and my youngest getting ready to start K. We live away from family and I’ve been a stay at home mom for 6 years. I’m trying to find a job and finding something that works with my children’s school schedule seems nonexistent. I’m really struggling with not being there for my kids as I have been the last 6 years and don’t want to rock their world by Mommy not being there like they are use to. I’m holding on to Jeremiah 29:11 and I’m trusting God!!

  39. I’m trusting God today. In the natural, I’m breaking down. I’m struggling more than I have ever struggled. I’m overwhelmed with a fear that cripples me. But, I know my God isn’t surprised or worried. So I’m working to take the thoughts captive and trust that the God who has always been with me, has gone before me and will guide me in the direction I must go. Thank you for this post Sharon. It was exactly what I needed today as I stand on the battlefield.

  40. AMEN! THAT’s my King! I’m trusting God! Thank you, Sharon, for passing this on. We have a young man in our Celebrate Recovery ministry that performs this. Praise God! It’s SO powerful!

  41. I’m trusting God to heal the hurts of the last 7 years inflicted upon my family through the past sins of family. I recently discovered, or more rightly was reminded, reading The Word that what is happening in my family today is not only the choices and experiences of us now but the choices and experiences handed from generation to generation. I’m trusting God to heal specifically my husband and me. We’ve both done damage and we both need God desperately. Unfortunately, he doesn’t agree…… Thank You for reminding me Whom I serve!
    Carolyn

  42. I’m Trusting God! Thank you for this today! This has been quite a month and to have the awesome reminder that “God has got this!” is just what I needed to read. 🙂 Also, I love the quote, “Life is just so daily”…how true is that?!? It is amazing what God can do when we let go and let Him each and everyday!

  43. I’m trusting God , yes indeed, I’m trusting God !!! For as many as are the promises of God, In Him (Jesus) they are yes; therefore also through Him (Jesus) is our Amen to the glory of God through us. 2 Corinthians 1:20 AMEN!!!

  44. I’m trusting God. I’ve been praying for my brother and have watched God do miracles in his life. God is so good all the time.

  45. My heart is bursting with Joy to know this Great God and to be known by Him. That He would reach down to the sad, lonely heart of a young women whose life felt meaningless and unloved by her earthly father and poured grace and love and purpose and Joy into her life .I do know and love this Savior and Lord and am spending all my days on earth loving and serving Him for all He has done for me.

  46. I subscribe to GIG. I enjoy reading my gig I begin my day with a cup of coffee, my Bible, and my Christian emails.my quite time with my Lord. I own a copy of praying for my husband head to toe but you see my husband is not a Christian yet, so i’m having to pray for his soul first. will gig help me pray not only for him but anyone who doesn’t know Christ. yes I know my King, wish everyone did.

  47. I’m trusting God! I’m holding on. I know He has a good plan for my life and he gives me hope and a future! Jeremiah 29:11

  48. Dear Sharon: Thanks for today’s encouragement… know that you’re not alone, also remember that these are “light” afflicitions…yet i’m trusting God and will continue too!!!!.

  49. Hi Sharon,

    Thank you so much for your devotions. They always seem to be what I need when I need it. I am sure you hear that all the time.

    I am trusting God.

    But I have to admit I do struggle with it a lot.

    Thank you
    Brenda Salcido

  50. Dear Sharon, I really liked your post today. It is encouraging. The photo is so appropriate. I am trusting God and praying for all of His people, people like you, that He has laid upon my heart, in Jesus’ Name. I’ve been reading the Good Book and related books from girlfriends in God too. Thank God for girlfriends all around the world wide web, and praise His Holy Name, Jesus, the Christ and Lord of all.

  51. Thank you Jesus, I Trust you and believe that your word is true. Thank you for loving me and protecting me. There is none like you and I trust you to do just what your word says you will do.

  52. I am trusting God for my son, he is dealing with anxiety and he is just exhausted, I feel so helpless and I hurt for him. I know the Lord is going to bring him through this and use it for good. Praise the Lord for all that He has done and all that He continues to do.
    Hallelujah to the King!!

  53. I am trusting God today. I trusted him yesterday and I will trust Him with my tomorrow. Like you, I’ve had a rough few weeks, but I know God’s got this. Thank you for your devotion and blog. It lifts me up daily.

  54. I’m trusting God! It’s because of his grace, love and joy that I do this. I haven’t been working for 3 years of the 5 years that I’ve been married but God has sustained us. Anyone who’s married knows if God wasn’t the priest and lord over my husband’s life I would be alone left to fight by myself in this world. God knows why he places us in difficult situations which seem crippling. He’s feed myself, my husband and daughter for these past 3 years. He’s sent help in times of trouble and much much more. I desire to know him more and to build a genuine relationship with him without being complacent. I love him and all that he has to offer me in this life and in the life to come. Days when I feel like quiting or existing this world its know that he died for me that keeps me going. It’s hard to be in this world md not get easily caught up in the adversities that are here because the vices of this world seem so tempting and easy to indulge. Lord I ask to be made whole by you and you alone send another bless one that would continue to sustain me and my family continue showing me how real you are and how much you love me. That I may tell all of your love and show them how to trust you as I do and more. God bless.

    1. I am trusting God to see me and my girls through yet another transition in life.
      I am a single mom of 2 girls ages 11 and 16. Their dad has recently decided to
      move to Michigan and leaves July 20th. Just a hint:we live in NC!
      So I am trusting God to give wisdom and discernement in the days ahead
      as we go through another bout of rejection from their dad.
      Thank you Sharon!!

  55. as i kept gazing at the picture and telling God that’s me Lord and ” i am Trusting You”, this scripture came to mind in John 15:4 “Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and i in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. So true how many times have i tried to do things in my own strength, we need Him all of us that are hurting we have to remember we are the branches, He is the vine that we need to cling too everyday! Because as it says in Acts 17:28 For In God we live and move and have our being”. Special woman of God remember we are His offspring! Lets hang on and never let go of Him, He is the anchor of our souls, as we read the blogs lets pray for each other’s hurts as Sharon says in her book the 5 dreams of every woman God created us women special with a desire to nurture and care for others, to be a friend who gives and not just takes, that is my prayer for myself, and may our prayer be that we may know how to sustain the weary one with a word, thank you Sharon you have done that for me

  56. I’m trusting God today! After 17 days of praying and fasting the Lord promises restoration. I am claiming this promise for my marriage and my children. Amen

  57. I AM TRUSTING GOD!!! THANK YOU Sharon Jaynes you have no idea how much I needed this!! It is confirmation to a very tough decision I’m about to take! I love it when God speaks!

  58. I AM TRUSTING God! Sharon, your devotion this morning has saved me from unwanted, unnecessary despair! Within this week, we’ve had the loss of my sister-in-law’s unborn sweet one; our teen daughter is at a youth convention where one of the other youth groups just found out a member of theirs who couldn’t attend was killed; my unemployment situation has, at times, seemed bleak and unending… Sometimes agitated by lack of family support.
    I know this to be the work of the evil one, trying to fight me and make me lose sight…

    But I WILL NOT give up, because I AM TRUSTING GOD, through all of this! I know this because “..I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11. HE does, HE loves; HE will, & I DO! I WILL NOT give up, because I AM TRUSTING GOD!! Amen, and thank you, Sharon!

  59. Sharon, thank you for all your words of wisdom. I am trusting GOD with all my heart and soul, also I convinced that he got me in the palm of his hand, taking care of me and my loved ones.

  60. Sharon, this was absolutely beautiful and gave me a sense of ‘peace’ reading it. I love all of the blogs from Girlfriends in God.
    I’M TRUSTING GOD!!!!

  61. I am trusting God. I pray to continue growing in my trust of The Lord. I am learning how amazing life is if I simply take Him at His word.

  62. I am trusting God with my future. Trusting that He has good things in store for me. All I have to do, is keep holding His hand, and following Him. He will never let me go, and never let me down – Hallelujah !

  63. “I’m Trusting God” and always will .. he’s seen our family through all the ups and down’s of life and it’s been a blessing. I cannot imagine life without him !

    Thanks so much Sharon for the gift you have of sharing him with all of us that read your devotions and books.

    Blessings .Sara

  64. Loved your post today. Yes I’m trusting God. Been unemployed since January of this year. It has not been easy but God has helped me throught all the interviews the tests the applications. I’ve seen His hand in all of this. I know he has a job for me. I’m trusting in him and in his timing. Would love to win your copy of the book. This season has been hard for me. I’ve been depressed and so discouraged. I’m grateful for posts like this because the more we hear about all that Jesus is and can be our faith has to grow. Bless you.

  65. I am trusting the God of all gods…the King of all Kings. Who am I to be loved by You? I don’t deserve your grace and mercy but yet You freely give it. Thank You Lord!

  66. I’m trusting God! He has provided so much for me when I learned to trust him. Thx Sharon for todays message!

  67. I’M TRUSTING GOD! Today’s blog was meant for me. My month has been similar to yours. So much has happened. Satan was waiting for me at every turn I made. But God! If it wasn’t for the Lord on my side, what would I do? Your blog was so encouraging. Thank you for sharing!

  68. I’m so at a loss for words, this post has truly shown me more than I can even comprehend of who our Lord is. I’ve led a horrible life, one that without my Saviour I would be sentenced to hell & probably on the top 20 list. But I praise my Lord & Saviour & my Father God for His grace & mercy. Nothing I can say or do would ever be enough to let Him know how much He has done, by giving His life up for my ignorance & sins. A lot has happened in the past couple of years, ive lost my husband, mother-in-law & brother within a 9 month span. The Holy Spirit has shown me & lifted me up, when I thought I never want to get up. But I am trusting in God because without Him there is no me & I know deep down God loves me & has known everything that has,is & will happen in my life already. I realize you will have a lot of reading to do, so i’ll just end by saying thank you for your post & May you be blessed beyond measure. thank you for your time and to God be the Glory

  69. I’m trusting God, this year more than ever. Since Nov. 2013 I separated from my Husband, my daughter was diagnose with Lupus on Jan 2, 2014 and my dad went to Heave with the Lord on Jan 3rd, 2014 and on March 28, 2014 I torn my minuscus on my knee which required surgery that was done on May 2nd, 2014. In all this whole painful situation, I was able to feel God next to me, there was time that I will loose hope and became anxious and worried, but the Holy Spirit whispering trust in God, read the word, delight yourself in the Lord He got this. I battle a lot with letting God take control, not that I don’t doubt but fear and worry overcomes me. So this year I have decide with all fears, worry and doubts trust in God and let him help me in this areas that need strength. All this pain that I have experience and still feel God is showing me who Am I in him. Thank you because this devotional revealed so much to me. Thank you, Thank you from my whole heart. You have always being a blessing in my life. I might not blog or comment to let you know but today I want to say Thank You my Sister for letting yourself be used by God, no matter what life through at you. Love you, your sister in Christ Vilma.

  70. Thank you so much Ms. Sharon for your spiritual encouragement. And I really like that comment from your friend Ms. Southerland “Life is so daily” because it really is.

  71. im trusting God. because there is no one else to do what he does. I have worked 2 elections this month. while I bake on wed, bake on thur morn, go to the alley in downtown aiken,sc Friday I bake, sat morn I go to the farmers market also in the same town. I trust God to let everything go on time get done on time and so forth. as ive been married 45 yrs. I trust God with my husband,ny children, my gransons everything and everybody and he doesn’t let me down. if he does I know im not doing what I need to be doing. thank you for what you do. Sharon.

  72. WOW! That was quite a sermon! I bet there were a lot of AMENS that day!!! Sitting here with tears in my eyes as I usually do when I read anything by any one of you!! Especially needed this today and it is AMAZING that our God ALWAYS! knows just what we need. Thanks for this and I am trusting God!

  73. I trust God! I have had a week where I have really needed God to show me some real clear answers to some decisions that I had to make that were weighing heavily in my heart. I prayed that God would show me clearly, in a way that I would have no problem hearing his voice, and God does answer your prayers. He is completely faithful, we just have to learn to trust him, and be willing to listen and accept the answers he gives us. I have learned through the last four years in dealing with a chronic illness, that I know pray not for what I believe I want to be done, but that God’s will be done in whatever situation it is that I am praying about. Because to give yourself to the Lord completely is to trust him and to trust that he knows what is best for us, and I have never been more blessed. God is amazing and so faithful. I wish more people realized the life they could live through Christ. I am living my life as an example so that I can be someone that can share with them as a walking testimony of what Christ has to offer. I am very thankful for your emails. God Bless.

  74. I am trusting God. My sweet daddy went home to be with Jesus on June 14. I’m trusting God to equip me for this new journey without my earthly father.

  75. I am trusting God! I had a dream about flying! God told me I was beautiful in my upsidedown wings and He fixed them for me! I am so ready to FLY!!!

  76. I love the peom. Indeed; it s True!

    I had a tugging in my heart in the last few weeks struggling with an issue about my sister. I have not seen or spoke for five years. A few days ago; our daughter confided in me and my husband. She felt that I needed to move on and set aside my issues. She felt that it is no longer important anymore. I knew that God is using miy daughter to get my attention. I knew it is a TRUST testing for me. i prayed and discussed with my husband about my feelings. Hubby isnt much of a “rightenousness” but God is working on hubby.

    We went to restaurant last night to meet my sister and her family. We had a nice dinner along with our Aunt who was celebrating 85th. I prayed on the way to the restaurant; asking God to comfort and put me at ease with the whole situation. I asked God to be with us during our time meeting my sister.

    The dinner went very well; she and i were sitting on the opposite of the table; we were sitting with our families and along with our Aunt in the middle. My aunt was so pleased and happy seeing me; she kept smiling and waving at me. I knew that God is approving and smiling that I made an effort and I had to TRUST on God on doing that.

    End of Dinner, I knew I had to set aside my feelings for my daughter’s sake and I wanted to show my family that we all sometimes have to move on and forget the foolishness from the past. God is using me to show and demonstration the love and grace of God to show to be humble and forget the past as God is forgiving and loving Daddy to each and one of us. WE got up and and getting ready leave; i gave my nieces a nice hug and finally a nice and long loving hug with my sister; when i hug and saw my daghter stading with a beautiful face of God displayed on her. I felt so loved and dearly for showing my “christ-like” behavior.

    Tusting is really difficult to master but we have to be “blind” faith to Trust God to follow His plans for each and one of us to accomplish. God knows what is our limitation and ability to do so. I wanted to cross off the God’s Bucket LIST for me!

    So you all can do the same thing to “overcome” knowing DADDY is with you every second with each step on the ladder.

  77. Oh Sharon, I will never be able to put into words what this has done for me today. Thank you for allowing God to speak through you to those of us who are watching and waiting expectantly for that ” better plan” that is promised. I posted the sermon on the FB page giving the proper credit of course and hoping to inspire a few of my friends. I can’t imagine having gone through the last year with Him.

  78. I AM TRUSTING GOD…

    All week I have been singing

    “Your love never fails,
    it never gives up
    it never runs out on me”

    From….One Thing Remains

  79. Sharon,

    After all the things I’ve been through this past year the only thing I can do is trust God. He has help my family and I get through so many hard times. I’ve learned how to have faith and to believe in his word. The Lord is not a man to lie and his word is true. He is my provider, my prince of peace, and he holds my world in his hands. I sometimes wonder how do people live without him !! The Lord is my shepherd ! I’m so thankful for all the things he has done and still doing in my life. As for me and my house we will serve the Lord. Thank you so much for your time and devotions !!

  80. After my last 36 hours, I needed this. I’m trusting God to redeem all of me. My past, present and future. Praise God we have a mighty Savior!!

  81. I’m trusting God!! Had a rough 36 hours so the fog is lifting and I know who holds the world in His hands. Thanks for reminding me who God is!!

  82. I’m trusting God today! After planning, preparing and fundraising for a year long mission in India to help women and children sold into sex slavery I have spent the last 4 weeks battling a multiple sclerosis exacerbation. Yesterday I visited my neurologist and he wants to change me to a drug that would have to be given intravenously once a month which will be difficult but not impossible for God to do in India. I was slated to leave the end of July and am trusting in Him that this was not his plan for me to leave at then of July and he has more for me to do here in the US before I go to India to help others who cannot help themselves. I would appreciate any prayers you can offer. Blessings to you. Karena

  83. I AM TRUSTING GOD!! I really needed this today!! When I saw the title, I knew it was going to bless me and sent it straight to my daughter. My daughter is going through a really hard time right now and I’ve been telling her this very same thing. I told her I didn’t know why God was putting her through this trial, but that it was ordained from the creation of the world and He already knows the outcome! When my daughter or anyone else speaks about the situation, I tell them “Just pray, God’s got this! No worrying or complaining can do anything about it, just pray and believe God.” That’s what I do when I get overwhelmed by the situation. God is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all we can ask or think, according to the power that works in us! Thank you for confirming God’s word and may continue to bless all you put your hands to do.

  84. He is wonderful and He is faithful .. Thank you for these reminders of his Attributes … I put them on my Wall so I can remember and encourage others as well

  85. Sharon,

    Thank you for this very timely post and your transparency in sharing with us. You will never really know the impact it has on others such as myself. I also love Pastor Shadrach Meshah Lockridge’s “That’s My King” piece from his sermon and every time I hear or read it my soul just screams, “Hallelujah!”

    I pray that the Lord covers and keeps you daily and that He blesses you in ways unimaginable…I’m trusting God!

  86. Sharon thank you for ineeded to read this today. I know feelings are just that but lately they seems to be taking over. The more I pray the stronger the feelings get. Today I was reminded who God is, and he is ALL. I am going to read this for the next several days until it’s my heart. Right now I know it’s what I need but I want to make it my heart. Keep me in your prays.

    Again thank you

  87. I’m trusting God that he has a good plan for my future .. much better than the ones I try to come up with on my own! God will NEVER fail me, never leave or forsake me. This is my prayer …

  88. I am trusting God to bring me a partner that we both may follow his Path together Someone to share and understand His Word with so I will be lonely no more. Thank you Sharon!

  89. I am trusting God with every aspect of my life and it is so very liberating. It has taken me a long time to get to this point, but man does it feel good.

  90. I am trusting God! What’s more I am sure God will be with me during this trying time in my family. I know God has his arm around my shoulder and his hand over my mouth. You see I am very upset with some grown children in my family. I feel my daughter is taking advantage of my husband. I am doing everything I can to keep my mouth shut. You see I have to honor my husband’s decision. I do not like it. my husband knows exactly how I feel because we have talked about this situation. But if our daughter would find out how upset I am, I am sure the fall out would be more than this family could handle. Therefore, I am trusting God to help me and my family through this crisis. Because it is a crisis caused by poor decisions made by our daughter. I am trusting God to give me strength to do what is right and keep my mouth shut. This situation has to be between my daughter and her father. I do not need to force myself in this problem. God is going to help us and help me during this time. Glory be to God! God is so good!

  91. As I read this the tears began to run down my face. I have been struggling in so many areas of my life lately and depression has begun to set in. I walk around with a smile on my face but no one but God really knows what I’m going through. This message was right on time. Lord I trust you.

  92. Oh this teaching really touched and blessed me. I just left an emotionally and physically abusive job that I held for 10 years. I am injured by that job and the owner refuses to pay me through workmans comp and forced me to quit. I believe God was calling me out of the negative environment but I was afraid to leave my stable income and rely solely on a variable income (I have 2 jobs). Once I surrendered to God my fear of not having enough money, the anxiety I suffered left me. I am appealing the workers comp because I want to stand up for myself, and I surrender the outcome to God. My struggle is to keep my eyes on Him and not on my struggles. I most often call the names of God when I pray and I am filled with power as I cite Adonai, El Roi,El Shaddai. Jehovah, etc. I am filled with Joy as I claim Jesus as the King of Glory! I quote scripture to myself “I HAVE NOT GIVEN YOU A SPIRIT OF FEAR,BUT OF POWER, LOVE AND A SOUND MIND” This enables me to walk upright in power and not cower in fear before my circumstances!
    To me the amazing thing is as I ask God to provide financially for me, my practice is increasing (I am a therapist) and I am having more families who I discover are Christian and allow me to bring Jesus into the therapy process. Can you feel the joy? 🙂
    Thank you!

  93. I am Trusting God! This message was timely for me, I have had a trying couple of months, I broke 3 bones in my foot May 6th and have been on Workmen’s Comp since it only pays 66% of my salary and God always comes through and we have what we need to pay All of our bills! Thank you Sharon for being a light in this world!

  94. Thank you Sharon for sharing the powerful attributes of God and our soon coming King Jesus Christ. I am blessed indeed to know them all. I will share this message with all of my friends.

    Right now, my country is going through some crisis. I am TRUSTING GOD is watching this and will not allow things to go out of hand. I pray and trust GOD to restore and bless my country, Papua New Guinea.

    I AM TRUSTING GOD.

  95. My family is going through the biggest trials we ever have right now and I feel closer to God than I think I ever have! It’s amazing how he just keeps helping through each day! So thankful to be a Christian! Love reading your devotionals! They are so helpful! Thank you for sharing!

  96. Wow! I am so speechless right now. I am a worrier and my willingness to fully trust The Lord is what the enemy is jumping on right now. Reading this is such a blessing to me. I can feel it in my bones. I am trusting Him! I can not truly put into words how moved I am right now. Thank you so much for this.

  97. I’m trusting God!!

    Thank you so much for posting this today! God certainly used you to give me another reminder that He is in complete control while we go through another difficult time. What a wonderful message!!

  98. Hey Sharon ~ So sorry to hear about your fall. You might have seen on FB that I fell in May on the concrete (more like launched myself onto it in an effort to regain my balance!). Ended up with a split temple, broken femur at my hip and broken left hand, plus misc. scrapes and sprains….all while in Ohio. So I can relate. It forced us to cancel my Russia Mission trip plans. Here’s the wonderful part of how God does, indeed, “have this”.

    Because I had to fly home instead of driving the 3 days back to El Paso, I had an opportunity to share the Gospel with a young gal who was relocating that day with the Army. She prayed to received Jesus as her Savior! Pray for her if you think about it – her name is Veronica.

    The other God appointment happened the morning I sent Alan and Robbie off to Russia. I “happened” to be outside our apartment cleaning the kitty litter box (hey, whatever it takes!) and my neighbor that I’d gotten to know by virtue of our 3 little dogs she was always having to take out, was out. I found out that she was leaving in a couple of days to go back to her home country of South Africa. God opened up the doors to talk about her relationship him, and again, I had a chance to share the Gospel and find out where she stood with God. I believe she was a Christian, but my encouragement to her was to read the Word. I told her I’d get her a Bible if I could before the day was over (I was leaving early the next morning for Colorado – no more chances) and my friend, Twyla, had an extra one that had been left at the church – a women’s small devotional, leather-bound and all – which I was able to give to her. Her name is Carrie.

    Bottom line, because of my fall, I’ve been able to share truth with two women I won’t have had opportunity to do otherwise. It was SO encouraging and humbling to know the Lord had these in mind when I had to cancel the mission trip plans.

    The other hidden blessing in canceling was that I was able to drive myself up to Colorado this last weekend to celebrate my dad’s 90th birthday with him….and see how he was doing by himself. What a blessing that was. I love that there are no coincidences my life, because he is that interested in my daily life!

    Hope you recover quickly and completely from your fall,

      What an amazing story and glorious example of trusting God. You could of gone to bed and pulled the covers over your head. Instead you said “Ok God, what shall we do now?”

  99. Thank you for always being an inspiration! Im trusting God today. I am so sorry about all the unfortunate events that has happened, but so inspired that you are trusting God in it all. Amen to trusting Him in all things! Thank you for always sharing your heart. God Bless.

  100. Thank you for always being an inspiration! Im trusting God today. I am so sorry about all the unfortunate events that has happened, but so inspired that you are trusting God in it all. Amen to trusting Him in all things! Thank you for always sharing your heart. God Bless.

  101. I have to trust God for the present and the future. There is no one else for me to trust with a myriad of personal crises plus the death on my beloved father last week I have no more strength of my own. Without God and His promises i would be busy unraveling and falling apart.
    Hebrews 11:1
    Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
    2 Corinthians 5 v 7
    for we walk by faith, not by sight–

  102. Amen! I am doing my best to trust Him each and every day. Sometimes I fail Him but I am so thankful that His mercies are new each and every morning. He is always there willing to take my hand and guide me in the right direction.

  103. I’m trusting Him….today and EVERY day! My favorite verses that remind me to trust Him are Proverbs 3:5-6.

  104. YES! I do know GOD, and I TRUST HIM, LOVE HIM, to the moon and back. And I know He loves me too.
    Blessings, to all.

  105. Sharon, I, too have learned the hard way this week. I have come to realize God does give us more than we can handle so that we stay in check. That is the only way we stubborn ones realize we DO need him, and that HE can handle these things, not us!

  106. I am trusting you God to supply all my needs. I am trusting you God to open doors that no man can open. I am trusting you God, to heal my body. I am trusting you God to guide my surgeons hands and to direct my body to heal properly and promptly. I am trusting you God to provide me with all the knowledge necessary to pass the bar exam that lies ahead of me. Oh God, I am trusting you, your son, and the Holy Spirit, to continue to lead me and guide me. Because I am trusting you, I have no fear, no anxiety, no worries, no stress, and no pain. I instead have the victory! In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!

  107. Like you Sharon I’ve had quite a month. I’m due to find about when I lose my job when the next week, and then make a decision about my next move. I TRUST MY GOD for whatever direction he shows me to take. I have never had to so fully depend on him for my course in life and it’s scary but I’m reassured daily that “God ‘s Got This”.

  108. I have been trusting God to let a business sale that I own. It has been hard because I have been trying to sell for 2 years. You see my business is 2 hours from where I live and I have to live away from home a lot, away from my husband and younger son. I have had several who have wanted to buy but the banks just won’t lend. I fight every day to keep my hopes up and to trust that soon it will sell. I’m going to be a grandmother for the first time in Sept. and I want so much to be where I can go and visit my grandchild who lives 9 hours from me. I fight every day to keep my focus on God for I know he is my hope and strength.

  109. I am trusting God! Having a hard morning. I am glad that “God’s Got This!”. Thank you, Sharon, for sharing this message. Your blogs are so encouraging and help me to stay focused on Jesus throughout the daily challenges of life.

  110. I trust God at all times. He has preserved me all these years and I know He will not stop now. Bless you Women of God. He is FAITHFUL.

  111. I am trusting God. I know he will never fail me! His promises are true and for me to claim…I’m claiming them today.

  112. I am trusting God to do exceedingly abundantly more than I could ever imagine. I know He is faithful and I am finding my joy in Him.

  113. Trusting God in the lives of my young adult children & over a relationship I’ve been praying about. He’s allowed me to think back to past things He’s brought me through & I didn’t even KNOW HIM like I do now. He’s definitely my ONLY hope!!

  114. I trust God to quiet my tongue. I so desperately want to “correct” my employer when she makes false and mean hearted comments about others. I pray His presence with me all the day long.

  115. No matter what life throw at I seek God’s peace and understand that I can no one but him. I have lost so much, but taught me to look at the words that was coming out of my mouth. When I did I realize that I spoke all that negativity in my life .Yes I need my God now and yes I trust him…

  116. I am trusting God even when it’s hard to get out of the bed every morning. In the midst of depression and apathy when it seems I am surrounded and oppressed. He is my victory! My rock! My salvation! My only Hope! Time and again He proves His love! Thank you Lord for your mercy and patience with me, a pathetic wretch apart from You! Oh the blessings He bestows upon the obedient. Thank you for your Word, Lord! Thank you for your promises! You are the way, the truth and the life!

  117. WOW !! That description of God is enough to meditate on and take into my soul everyday for the rest of my life. ! Thank you Sharon…..for passing the sermon along. I never have to wonder about what to read for a devotional again. All the encouragement and strength I need for the day are in those attributes of Jesus.

  118. I trust God. I can’t say I’m truly trusting Him right now, BUT Lord knows I’m trying. I’m weak right now but after reading this I’m going down memory lane trying to recall ALL the miraculous things God’s done in my life.

  119. I am trusting God for my husband’s job to work out and our finances. My children’s salvation. Also for the difficult and painful relationships in my family to be healed. Much needed peace and love.

  120. I’m like Monica who posted above me. I’m a single mom with 3 young boys and can’t afford childcare and have no child support ….at the moment I am praying and trusting him for a miracle financially. It seems that no matter how hard I work the money isn’t coming. I have a mortgage payment due on Monday, and phone and utilities to pay within the next few days or they shut them off. God has promised he will provide…. he has in the past and I am trusting him to bring us through this

  121. I sure need to learn to trust God more…and to listen to Him! I AM trusting God! And praise Him for who He is and all He does!

  122. I’m trusting God, for the situations I cannot change and for the hopelessness I sometimes feel in those situations. I know He can fix them and take care of me on the journey. Only He can – I trust Him!

  123. my wife is insisting on divorce because of her lack of discretion but wants to wait forever to actually do it. my heart is ripped out and i am finding it hard not to lash out in angry words. i am trying to forgive but she is not interested. she is only “with me” because of our children… i choose to, want to trust God but feel like i am a million trillion light years away from Him, that He wants nothing to do with me, that the only words i will ever hear from Him are “depart from Me, I never knew you declares the Lord” that i am disqualified, rejected, cursed by God and close to being burned… i know that “in Christ there is no condemnation” but find it hard to know deep inside that i am in Christ. i must choose to believe that i am in Christ by His Grace and for His Glory but everything inside me screams that i am lost and that there is not hope for me. yet for my boys (6,12) i must stand for Christ even if i am not allowed to stand in Christ. is it possible for someone who lacks faith, somehow knows he is totally lost to stand for Christ in his children’s lives… faith without works is dead probably works without faith is equally dead….. i will choose to trust God even if i can not feel that He loves me, will God help me to trust Him, to know Him and live in Him with every moment of my existence? How can i cherish my wife when she does not want anything to do with me. how do i keep from wanting to hate her? in Christ we can do all things……. Jesus really is the only answer… love never fails. my marriage is failing because there is no love left in it and there is no love left in it because there is no love left in me??? is my heart so destroyed that there is no place for love to settle? has the hurt been too much and overloaded my ability to feel anything? will i ever know and be allowed to love God the way that i know i must, the way i need to? It is somehow good to dump my heart out. can i be the dad that pushes his kids to safety while he himself burns forever and ever in hell? Wouldn’t it be better to be the dad that carries his kids with Christ help to enjoy heaven together forever and ever… i think i will choose the latter if it is up to me. with His help and if He will have me i will trust God, no matter what my eternal destination, for His sake as He alone deserves to be blessed in every way possible…

I told my husband and all the doctors not to worry – that God would heal me. And now, Glory to His Holy Name, I am in remission. The seizure I had alerted the doctors to a problem that led to this diagnosis, but I call it my little blessing in disguise. It was all part of God’s plan for my life, a plan He is working for my good and His glory! How could I not trust Him? I can’t imagine trying to live without Him. I’m sure I was able to tolerate all the treatments only by His grace. I’m thankful all my doctors were people of faith and give the glory to Almighty God!
