What's Ahead?


“God, who foresaw your tribulation, has specially armed you to go through it, not without pain but without stain”-C.S. Lewis

Lately I have thought very thoroughly about my future. Where will I go to college? What will be my major? What job do I want when I get out of college? Who will I marry? Ridiculous, I know…I know that God has has armed me to go through it, its just on me to have the faith. As Paul says in Romans 8:38-39, ”… nor things present nor things to come…nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” That alone sets me up for success, nothing in all creation can take Christ’s love from me, therefore he will never ignore my struggles, ignore my hard decisions, or even ignore my life. I have the greatest and only God on my side and it is in that I can boast about my life and success. I will praise him for my struggle because in that I will gain steadfastness and get through what to me looks like a big problem, which compared to the suffering of Christ, is nothing. (James 1:1-18) I will continue to pray for deeper faith in what Christ will do for me. Praise him for he is worthy…

Read James and Romans 8 and be ready for a ride.
