" And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age". Matt. 28:21b (ESV)
All morning that verse has been popping into my head. With Thomas being gone the thing I hate the most, and causes the most fear, is being alone. Being at the house, by myself a lot, can be very discouraging and just hard some days. It makes me have to face my fear of being alone. But today through my quiet time ,and working out, God blessed me with this verse. Made me realize that the thought that I am alone is a thought form satan. Truly I am not alone. :-) God is so cool like that.
A habit I want to get into is finding something everything day to be thankful for. It is easy to be pitiful and woe is me. That is a habit I don't want to get into. I am determined to not let my joy be taken away from me. Not matter what the circumstance I want to find God's joy always present in my life. I have been told that it takes 30 days to form a habit so for 30 days I am going to be very intentional in finding the number of day I am on things to be thankful for.
Day 1: I am thankful that I am truly not alone.
God has placed so many people in my life. My family, church family, navy wives, and two awesome cats. Also for giving me my husband. Even though he is far a way at the moment I have someone to share all the silly things in life with. Someone to just be me with and challenge me. And someone to share my faith and walk with God. And above all of that, I am so glad my heavenly father is in my life. He fills my heart with joy, peace and comfort at times when no one else can. :-)
It has been just over two weeks since I last saw my husband smile and got the chance to kiss him. But that just means I am that much closer to seeing him again. :-)
