Truth


This is so true for me; so often I don't even realize
the blessings that I have received that I didn't even pray for.
Sometimes my prayers can be so dry or repetitive and so
often I don't trust in the power of prayer- but even in my
inadequacy to pray always with full meaning, God answers those
prayers and in the most perfect way possible. 
Sometimes I wonder why God hasn't answered a certain prayer
but as time goes on and the solution presents itself, in the quiet
depths of my soul I start to understand that His plans are tremendously
greater than mine and His timing is always perfect. Our God
is so gracious to have the perfect plans for our lives.

I have exactly the life that I pictured I would and the life that I wanted and planned for. Along the way I had a lot of hardships, but ultimately God still gave me what I wanted. What is baffling for me is that the devil can give me so much doubt and discontentment even in situations that I know are right for my life. I realized that there won't be a moment in my life where I will be perfectly content and be absolutely happy about every aspect in my life- not without a fight at least. Reading this book has showed me how actively I have to fight every day to stay alert and listen to the voice of God and tell myself truth instead of listening to the lies that the devil tries ...
