The ways God has shown Himself to me...

After talking with a friend and sharing the ways that God has impacted my life recently I decide that I need to journal them some where. So that I could look back at them and see how God has been there for me in the past and how He is here for me now.

The ways...

1) How going through a major event in a friends life has strengthen our friendship and has truly been an answer to prayers.

2) Losing someone has shown me that what I wanted was not the best for her and how in the end God has worked it out for the best. (I was just her life to plant the seed now it is someone elses turn to make it grow.)

3) Turning to prayer when a situation is out of my hands drives Satan right out of the picture and I grow closer to God.

4) Realizing that my glory does not need to come from earthly sources, but I will receive my glory in heaven. That it does not matter what others think, God's opinion is the only one whose matters.

5) When I trust in Him and follow His will He will provide. In this case giving what you really do not have and receiving funds to supplement and even exceed your wildest expectations.

What an awesome time it has been. Daniel 2:23 summarizes my gratitude to God, "I thank and praise you, O God of my fathers: you have given me wisdom and power."
