It's cool to read about other's experiences, but it's even cooler when God works in OUR own lives.

Thank you for all you've said in this helpful post. These last few years have been a tougher road than I think I would have chosen for myself, with too many losses and some major hits that I didn't get up from right away.

But I did...with help...and now I have a better idea about how He works, how hard my head is and what I put Him through to get my attitude adjusted.

I learned that when you ask God to show Himself to you, it's best to be a good student instead of a stubborn one like me. He will answer that prayer...one way or another.

And He will "take you to the desert" if that's what He has to do. Kinda cool...looking back...but not so much at the time.

Been there, done that.

I hear you.

I love hearing testimonies about how God has worked in people’s lives and the great things He has done for them.

It didn’t used to occur to me what they went through to get there. It’s not so much fun when it happens to me.

I know better now.
