Big Changes

Changes and a fresh start are on the horizon for Colton and I. Moving, school, and a surgery will be just a couple of the things we have going in our lives soon! It's been a crazy roller coaster of a ride filled with too many ups and downs to count and it still isn't over yet! It's been very humbling to me because I have had to rely on family to financially support me now for the past month. I also have around $5,000 dollars in bills to pay and I have no money. I know that Colton and I will be taken care of and that God will provide for us. God has been faithful and merciful to us during this difficult transition in our lives. I am getting to the point where I am just so ready for a fresh start and so excited to see what God has in store. It's painful and extremely scary at times but I can't wait to see how he can use some of the painful events and tradegy in my life for his purpose!! There have been so many bible verses that have gotten me through this and I wanted to share a couple of them with you:

Lamentations 3: 31-33
31 For no one is abandoned by the Lord forever. 32 Though he brings grief, he also shows compassion because of the greatness of his unfailing love. 33 For he does not enjoy hurting people or causing them sorrow.

Psalm 121: 3-8
3 He will not let you stumble;the one who watches over you will not slumber. 4 Indeed, he who watches over Israel never slumbers or sleeps. 5 The Lord himself watches over you! The Lord stands beside you as your protective shade. 6 The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon at night. 7 The Lord keeps you from all harm and watches over your life. 8 The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go,both now and forever.

Proverbs 16:9
9 We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.

2 Timothy 1:12
12That's why I am suffering now. But I am not ashamed! I know the one I have faith in, and I am sure that he can guard until the last day what he has trusted me with.

These are just a few that have helped me through! My freedom has been found in Christ!
