I have not written much lately. Over that past few weeks I've dealt with many Single Mama issues such as school dances, practices, illness, Halloween costumes, parties, getting each kido where they need to go, and so on. Sadly, one night I was helping my son deal with his first big time disappointment. He had not made the basketball team. This had never happened to him before and he took it very hard. Later on in the week, I heard that my sweet boy had shared with his small group at church that he felt like God was going to use this disappointment to put him on another path to do something else. YES...I'm smiling ear to ear and proud enough to bust as I write this... Go God! My son is learning that he has a Heavenly Father who loves him so much that He always has his best in mind!!! After the tears were gone and the hurt had eased my son knew that God was not done with him yet.! God is the man with the plan ! Maybe you're in that place today where you're facing something that hurts. Pain and disappointment can swallow you in life if you choose to let it. Maybe you don't see what Gods plan is but, much like my son, you're holding onto faith that you know God has more in store for you. Jeremiah 29:11 I say this because I know the plans that I have for you.” This message is from the Lord. “I have good plans for you. I don’t plan to hurt you. I plan to give you hope and a good future. Rest assured... He will show you the way if you ask Him. The choices you've made, the hurt you've been dealt don't begin to measure with the Unconditional Love that He has for you. Romans 8:28 & 39 Yes, I am sure that nothing can separate us from God’s love—not death, life, angels, or ruling spirits. I am sure that nothing now, nothing in the future, no powers, nothing above us or nothing below us—nothing in the whole created world—will ever be able to separate us from the love God has shown us in Christ Jesus our Lord.
