Acts 14:26 From there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work which they had completed.
Sometimes, I feel uncomfortable when people tell me that I did a great job or that I am strong or amazing. I know that this was not my doing. I could not have walked this out victoriously without God’s grace and peace and joy. He carried me, how can I take credit for that? God gets all the glory!! I do want to share that we have our part, too, our responsibility inside what God is doing in our lives. First, How do we view God? God is my everything. I know that, when all is said and done, all that matters is what is between me and Him. Where do we stand with God and where do we place Him in our lives? My starting point is…All things belong to God.
All things are made by Him, for Him. Including me. And… God is Love. I can trust Him. He has my best interest at heart even if it doesn’t look that way to me. I was not, and am not, and will not allow myself to be, mad at God. I may be mad that this is the way it has to be but I know He is Sovereign. I know that He sees what is best for me. I am limited. He allows me to see just as much as I need to see and the rest is up to Him. It is OK if I don’t understand it all. That’s called faith and also trust. When I found out Jaden was going to be stillborn, I had some choices to make. I knew I couldn’t do it on my own.
