I was having a really hard time last night.  I still can't find a job that I qualify for, all my friends are back home, I'm butting heads with my sister and her husband, everything that could possibly go wrong is doing just that.  I've been feeling like God is so absent from my life.  I feel like he's miles and miles away.  I haven't been spending

Awww girl!!
Isn't he amazing??
I remember when I first believed, I know I felt unworthy. I didn't feel as tho I was anywhere near good enough to be one of his followers. But a person who showed me Him, my boyfriend and sweetheart Troy, looked at me straight in the eye and told me I was. That everyone is worthy even though we are natural sinners. But we are worthy if He choses us, and He has.
He chose you, remember that always. And always remember that he is there for you. I always find little ways that he says "Hi" to me or "I'm here!" For instance, and I know this sounds ridiculous to the nonbeliever, but I was getting so frustrated one night as I was ringing up customers on register because I kept running out of fives and ones, and I hadn't even seen a ten for hours... and I sat there and thought "This would be so much easier if I had tens, but I don't even think they exist anymore!" And I swear to you, the next couple of customers all payed with ten dollar bills. Though this may sound crazy, I know it was Him helping me. It made me smile and relax, realizing nothing can be that terrible for he is always on my side and always helping me. What more can any of us need then the Lord Almighty? And the believers know, He is with us at all times. It is an amazing blessing to be a believer.
Another thing that I always remind myself is that to us, a believer who is regretfully worldly, things happen that frustrate us or maybe even scare us. Things that we might not want to happen, or might think is terrible and that we don't deserve. But I always remind myself that it doesn't matter what we think, because the Lord, the one we have turned ourselves over to, will always be there for us and fulfill His promises. He knows so much more than we will ever know. And He knows what is best for us at all times. He is taking care of us, and everything happens for a reason, His reason. We may not know it, that's why often times believers pray to accept His will because they are stuck on worldly views of good and bad. So remember~> Even though right now you might think whatever you are going through is terrible, it is His will. And He is still always there with you, as He showed you when you opened your Bible and found that passage. Just go to your Bible and read, the instructions are always in His Word. And embrace Him, surrender your frustrations to the Lord and He will take care of them better than anyone in this world, or in the next. He is the Lord, and nothing is too great for His power.

Thank you so much for that. I really needed someone to tell me that things are going to ok because it's all in God's hands. God bless you for those kind words.
