Bless The Lord At All Times

My husband has been in the hospital for two weeks now and it has been a rough journey... the Lord has kept his loving hands on my family during this trial. I will continue to bless the Lord at all times. There are so many things to be grateful for... My husband is still alive, I have a wonderful little man who I get to wake up to every morning, I have a GREAT mother who is staying by my side through everything, I have a healthy little man coming in just 4 more weeks and I have my health. The Lord is giving me strength, and I praise Him for that. Even through the tough times we need to remember to keep praising God... even though we may not feel up to it. "I will bless the Lord at all times, His praise shall continually be in my mouth."

Trials

It is during those times of trials that the Lord carries us. He gives us trials to remind us that we can do nothing on our own and must lean on Him. We must remember that we cannot predict the future nor can we change it. The Lord knows the what?, when?, and why?. He knows all the answers. So there is no point in worrying about any of it. We must trust that he has a purpose for everything and He will never give us anything we cannot handle. We must remember that when those trials come, it is not the time to worry... it is a time to worship. To praise His name for all that we still have, and bless Him for the things He will continue to provide. "It is well with my soul"
