strangely enough my blog had the most views i’ve ever had on tuesday. coincidence? probs not. chances are when my life became public once again and hit the paper tuesday morning people who are curious about my life went to see if i had blogged about it. i had not. but i will now…
this past monday my father was supposed to be sentenced. yes i know oooo scary. but i was and still am at complete peace about it. unfortunately my father decided to run away. as far as we’ve been told he’s still missing. the only reason i am sharing this with all of you is because i want you to know how incredibly AWESOME God has been through all of this.
i may not understand why stuff like this happens. but i know that this is ulitimately going to bring God glory and thats really all that matters. my faith has grown so much in just a week. there is a reason this is happening and eventhough i’ll never know what it is or why i’m ok. i’m great. i have a God that loves me and has rescued me. there is nothing that can break me as long as i have God. i’m human and incredibly selfish so i’m going to make mistakes and run but He’ll still be there pursuing and loving me.
my dad is missing. i do love him and wish i knew where he is. but God is in complete control of the situation. i am not. i have nothing to worry about.
it has been a hard week. and i have had my struggles. but i have amazing people pointing me back to Jesus so nothing else can get in the way.
i am blessed enough to have a God that loves me and cares for me. it has been incredibly amazing to get to share Jesus’s love for us to others through this. to many of my non believing friends they have struggled to see why i’m so ok with all of this. ITS BECAUSE I HAVE JESUS. not for any other reason. i tried to get through this when it all first started on my own and it doesnt work. i’m so thankful for the last 4 years that have led up to this point and brought me to were i am.
so even if you are reading this because you’re simply curious about the case and whats going on with my dad…know that you can get through ANYTHING with God. and he wants to be there for you too.
