Thankful Tuesday: Trust in Him

I often just post the first thing that pops into my head.
It's on my mind today.
If it appears as if I am 'preaching'
I apologize.
I am thankful that personally these thoughts help me.
I have a friend who just yesterday said,
"God, Hates me... As much as I try to stay positive, something is thrown in my path to cut those positive thoughts down."
Its about agency.
I remember my seminary teacher telling us that
if you are having serious trials
you must have a special purpose.
DON'T GIVE UP!
Trials are harsh.
My feeling is that God knows what we are going through.
He is beside us in our trials.
To comfort us.
To stand by us.
We have to TRUST IN HIM.
I've been reading Isaiah
Studying it with the discussions on KBYU
It makes it so plain to understand.
Today
the message was:
God is in charge.
He will deal with Evil
He will comfort us in our trials
if we trust in him.
Isaiah 12:2
Behold, God is my salvation;
I WILL TRUST,
and not be afraid:
For the Lord JEHOVAH is my
STRENGTH
and my song;
he is also my salvation.
Today and Always,
remain hopeful
Trusting in him.
It's hard when challenges
seem so overwhelming.
Thats when we need to trust in him the most.
PRAYERS for my Friend and her Family.
