We never really understand, until we loose. I have taken life for granted many times. We have so much to be grateful for and we don't understand how much God has given us until it is threatened to be taken away. I have asked myself this question many times, why do I have it so good? I don't understand why my friends and family are suffering and I am not. It just doesn't seem fair to them how my life can be so perfect. I am frustrated at times when I can't give people an answer to my perfect life. I guess I should be happy that my life is so wonderful but I struggle with the thought of my friends hating me because I don't ever have to go through what they go through. The truth is I do have problems and I do struggle with my relationship with God, Honoring my parents, speaking softly to my siblings and many other problems. So don't hate me because I have great parents, don't hate me for having such a great relationship with my sister, or for loving life because the truth is I struggle just as much as you do and I am not perfect. It just seems like people don't take advice from me because they think I don't understand, Well I do. I love you and I don't want you to be struggling and I didn't ask for my situation in life. What it all comes down to is the plan of God and His hand in everything. He has placed me with a great family and a roof over my head. We are supposed to make the choice to use what God has given us for His glory. Because in the end that is what it all comes down to, God bringing glory to Himself through us. We have to choose to have a relationship with Him and that is when we are truly happy with the life that God has given us. So I will no longer worry about how other people feel about my great life because the truth is we all have LIFE and God has his Unfailing Hand in everything we do. I had been struggling with this for some time and I am glad that I was able to share from my heart. Remember that God has his unfailing hand in your life, and he wants you to make the choice to have a relationship with him and glorify him through all you do.
1 Corinthians 10:31
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
Galatians 2:20 20 "I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
