God is Good!

God is so good! He definitely knows what He is doing especially when we have NO clue what we are doing!

This week the devil has been working overtime to get me to falter... and he succeeded at getting to me and to his advantage... I let him win! I didn't read my Bible verses daily, I let silly little things get to me, and sleep was a challenge every night. By golly, I know I am not perfect and I sure as heck don't want to be but, for once, I would like to not feel that damn devil hovering over me!

Now that I have said that, let me explain why - in the midst of the devil hovering over me - I feel God is so good. This was a pretty busy week and not a good week to keep forgetting to pick up my 'happy' pills (as Peter calls them). Peter traveled for 3 days. I got a much needed hair cut. Lyndsy had a volleyball game in Gunter, TX.  I drove to Keller, TX for a photography class. My hair cut was a lot uneven so, I got it fixed. Lyndsy stayed home from school with chest pains (more like growing pains in her chest area) and we ran some errands. We had a dinner meeting with The Brawners. Went to the JV football game. Went to another volleyball game. Each day I felt the devil hovering. On my drive to Keller, TX, I think I drove behind every slow person on the road. While I was getting extremely impatient, I felt a sense of calm sweep over me, and I realized that God was putting those slow drivers and no passing zones in my path so I could see the beauty He created all around me. I arrived at my photography class just a minute late. You see, if I had MY way... I would have sped by all the beautiful scenery God created and arrived to my class completely stressed out. When I noticed my hair cut was a lot uneven... I didn't get mad, I called up the hair place and explained my situation and they were happy to make me a satisfied customer. All the mornings I woke up not feeling rested at all... God wrapped His arms around me and rocked me back to sleep (some times a little too well). I know that even though I didn't read my Bible verses daily, God was there to help me remember the words I needed when I was feeling overwhelmed with the devil's hovering! Even amongst all the busyness, God opened up 2 doors for possible jobs. Praise you Lord!!!!!

You see, I know God is good! Let me rephrase that... God is AWESOME!
