Praise

Nothing earth shaking to write about other than praising God for His faithfulness. I have been through many "bad" things over these last 10 years, but one thing I know for sure is that Christ has been with me through it all. He has walked through these fires with me and continuously hammered on me to remove so many things that have plagued my life. He has made into a different man than I was 10 years ago. I have more patience, kindness, love, and wisdom than I had what seems like a lifetime ago. His grace and mercy has been tangibly real in several situations in my life. While hammering me into this new man, He has protected me from those things that would completely break me. I do not know what things my future holds, but let me say with Job, "Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him." Let me agree with David that "my times are in His hands." Let me say with Paul, "Thanks be to God, for His unspeakable gift."
