WHEN GOD SAYS: BRING IT ON! The keys to having the faith to hold on.

You have to admit there are just some days that are better than others. Rainy days are soothing peaceful days for me. I like to sit and read my Bible and talk to the Lord about things that are on my mind. He always gives me insight pertaining to the different situations I bring before him and how He feels about them. There are other days that are bright and beautiful and He speaks to me through His creation. Everything in nature reveals the Glory of God. From thunder storms to butterflies His power and grace shine.
Throughout my life I have questioned why God allows things to happen the way they do. Good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people. And people we love hurt, and people we don't love never hurt. Or so it seems. I like answers. I like to know the why and how of things. Why can't a butterfly fly if you wipe the powder off of its wings? Why do babies die? Why? I don't have the answers. I always say when I get to Heaven I'm going to ask God why...And then I think, when I get to Heaven....it won't matter anymore. During these little talks with God I am given morsels to quench the hunger pains of doubt and frustration, and helplessness. We don't need to know why things happen the way they do. We need to know that God is going to get us through it. And that He really does care. I know this for a fact. I've learned to see His wisdom in everything – the good as well as the bad. I hope this book helps you see God the way I do. If you can get past the clouds… the SON is shining!
