This life is crazy, but I love it. God brought me into it and only He knows my last days. I'm now 30 and have realized....well.....a LONG time ago, that life is sooooo precious....and truly does prepare us for what is to come.Do what you love to do, be where you want to be, love those who love you....and even though it’s hard, love those who hurt you....it’s not something God said if we want to, but we really don’t have to....he commanded it.Matthew 5:44 “But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!†Because honestly what would hate accomplish? Nothing....my sentiments exactly.I’m not perfect, no one is no matter how hard they try, but I thank God everyday for the life He gave me. For my family, my friends and even the things that don’t mean anything - every material thing in this temporary life. Everything is His. Every blessing I’ve received until this moment, is a gift from God.When life gets tough, people ask God why….Why is this happening to me? Why are you doing this God? Why? Remember, God created us…we aren’t God, therefore we aren’t capable or even meant to understand why things happen or the way they do. For me, it boils down to this - Everything happens for a reason and whether we understand it or not, we can’t give up on the one who never gave up on us from the beginning of time. Life is going to get harder – the people closest to you are going to pass on – just know that He will never abandon you.John 3:16: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.â€Hope is God, God is love & love is eternal!Love in Him,
