I know my blogging has not been up to par lately. I'm thinking about doing this
30 day blog challenge that has been going on this month. I would be 10 days behind but I don't think it matters too much. I think it will be fun and it will get me to blog more.
Lately I have been very thankful for God's grace. It's something that I know I take for granted on a regular basis but lately it has been much more apparent to me. Last night I read Genesis 7 which is about Noah and his family in the ark during the 40 days and 40 nights. I could tell this story backwards since I was 8, but I've never looked at in the way I did last night. Noah, being human had to have struggled with being crammed in an ark with his family and every animal imaginable. He must have had moments where he felt like it would never end. 40 days can seem like an eternity. But God delivered him and his family and kept his promise to Noah.
There are times when I battle with my anxiety and wonder if it will ever end. Will I ever find relief from my daily worries? Well, God has yet to let me down. He has pushed me, but only for my benefit. I went through a period of terrible anxiety around this time last year. With the wedding coming closer, graduation a few months away and stresses of money, my mind just wouldn't quit. Those couple months felt like eternity but God delivered me through it. I am so thankful that His grace is abundant and that He never pushes us beyond what we can handle.
