Reflecting on God's Goodness

Hi all.

God is just soo good. This week especially. I was thinking so much about His merciful hand. Then it got me thinking, well how would I react when things do not go according to plan? Recently I have felt like God has just been working everything out so well for me and I don't know-it becomes so easy to praise God for everything. But, what if He throws something unexpected along the way? Kind of like that car accident I had to go through-which clearly was a bump in the road. I don't know. I know that I am in God's hands, but it is so hard for me to accept God's goodness in my life. I feel soo unworthy. I know I am his child, but still. I guess for me the question is why is God so good to ME? I know He is good, no matter the circumstances we are in but I have just been so humbled by His goodness.

I don't know if I am making any sense, but one thing I know is that if you abide in Christ, He will abide in you, even the storms, or the "stress" in our life will seem like nothing. 

Just a little testimony: I was so "stressed" about this week. I had so much to do and had very little time to do everything during the weekend. During the weekdays, I had to sub so I was anxious about not studying for my exams enough, and doing well on my papers. I raised my hand in church on Sunday basically to ask for prayer for the week concerning worldly things: school. Anyway, everything worked out so well. I myself, was shocked with how well I did on all my assignments/exams. All glory to God-for I certainly did not study enough. Even in my busyness I made it a priority to spend time with God everyday and God made everything seem so simple, and worked everything out. In this I learned, no matter how busy you get during the week, trust God, and MAKE time to spend with Him in the word and prayer. Life is so much easier this way!  I know this is something we all know, but for me at least, I constantly need reminders.

Blessings,
Lesya
