We all know that life can very hard. And sometimes, it just seems like the road gets harder and harder, darker and darker. It was like that for me for a long time. And sometimes, I still have my periods where it gets like that. Sometimes, the seasons in life just keep changing. So what is the difference now, when these seasons come? The difference now is that I am repeatedly filled with joy, peace, and hope for the future, and expectation for the brighter side of the unfortunate circumstance(s). The difference now is that I can cast all of my cares on God
(1 Peter 5:7), and still be fulfilled during the battle/struggle.
I no longer turn to toxic traits to get passed the pain (or so I thought). I have now learned a healthier way to cope with the difficulties of life, and stay cleansed, while I am battling. Lastly, I learned that although the drought may drain and damage me/you, it will not drown me/you, unless I/we allow it too, I learned all of this once I finally decided to give my all to God. I finally learned not to withhold any part of me from the Master. Finally, I allowed Him to do the work in me that He needed to do, in order to get me where He intended for me to be! Be willing to give your all to God! It develops your character and grants you His perfect peace, joy, and hope
(Romans 15:13), in the storm! We find ourselves so desperate for so many things in this life. So why not become so desperate for God?
