For Nothing is Impossible with God!- Luke 1:37

"You are exactly where God wants you to be at

 this very moment. Every Experience is part of

 his divine plan."

This quote has hit home with me the last few days. Its words speak to me. There are so many days when I question why things are happening in my life or why things can't just work out a little bit easier but this quote reminds me that they are working out a little bit easier then I like to think they are. It reminds me that everything I do and all the experiences I go through are part of a bigger plan and a bigger picture. Some experiences I never question because they are fun and don't bring me any emotional upset or pain. It's when the difficult experiences come that I begin to forget this quote. I begin to forget what my life really is about. It is not just that bad experience that defines me. There is so much more that defines me and my life. I am defined by the way I react to the situations rather than by the situations themselves.  Sometimes it is difficult for me to see the bigger picture and remind myself that while at the moment it doesn't seem like this is part of Gods plan, it is. He has a bigger plan for me and a bigger picture for me to create. As many of you know, I am a control freak, I like to micromanage every moment of my life. Because of this it is hard for me to let God take over and let faith carry me through. Over the last few months I have been struggling to let faith carry me. I have let the fears I have and the unpredictability of the situation my family is in over take me. I have let the fear of losing someone close to me invade my mind rather than letting God help me through it. I have let my inability to control the situation make me go crazy! While it will always be hard for me to let go of all of this fear and control I can do it. I have done it before; I can do it again, with a little help. With a little help from God, my family, my friends, and the amazing support group I am surround with. I know the journey I am embarking on with my family will not be an easy one, it will have its ups and downs but I need to keep in mind that it is part of HIS plan, there is a bigger picture that all of this fits into. I will get through the unpredictability, the fear, and uncertainty and I will come out stronger, with more faith, and a better understanding of everything going on around me. It is part of GODS plan, not mine. I can do this and so can everyone else that is going through difficult times in their lives. Nothing is impossible with God!
