As I was reading some Facebook posts this morning, I was reminded of something I learned a few years ago.
As life goes on, there are good times, bad times, blah times....you get the picture.  Well during one of the more stressful times in my life I was sitting in my living room praying and the front door was open.  I was enjoying a beautiful sunny day.  I was focused on my problems, but as i was sitting in my chair and looking out the door at the beautiful cloudless sky,  God revealed to me that.... yes, I was going to have these kind of days but the reality was - the sun will rise and set tomorrow just like it did today....... the day after that and the day after that and so on..........your problems are only temporary so don't focus on them.  Focus on ME/GOD, that sun is going to come up tomorrow just like it did today and it is not "the end of the world".......and you know that little fact is something that we can take comfort in.  Our problems are real.... but they are only here for a short while and while they may rock the little "world" around us, but with thankfulness I can say... the big picture is.....in reality,  the real world is held in place by it's Creator.  We just need to trust our lives to his control.
I am not saying that every thing is gonna be "peachy", cause it's not.........I am saying that whatever we go through we don't have to go through it alone.  HE wants us to cry, let off steam, get angry,....if HE didn't HE would not have built those emotions in us.  BUT.......the main thing is that we are to lean on HIM and trust HIM to get us through life.  I am not saying it's gonna be easy, cause it seems so unnatural to just let go of everything that we feel we need to hold on to.  This has helped me so much to be able to see beyond the problem or heartache at hand and focus on getting to where I can live my life the way HE wants me to live it and sometimes we have to remind ourselves daily of this little tidbit of information.
