This quote grabbed my heart today:
"If you are going to be used by God, He will take you through a number of experiences that are not meant for you personally at all. They are designed to make you useful in His hands, and to enable you to understand what takes place in the lives of others" -Oswald Chambers
Even when life is hard, our God is still good. I see it at every twist and turn that comes our way. We live a part of His much bigger story. No piece of a puzzle is insignificant. Some days you might feel like another "blue" piece in a puzzle full of water or sky, but each one is still unique. Each one is important or something is missing.
Our struggles may be key in someone else's story. We have all been moved by the actions or testimonies of others who stay firm in trials and troubles. Our God is still moving the pieces. Our stories are not over... even after we are gone.
Then this was my verse of the day:
"If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” -Luke 11:13
It is always good to be reminded of the goodness of God. He is so much more than we ever imagine Him to be.
Today, I am grateful for so much more.
