It was once said "a faith not tested is a faith not trusted."   This week has been a challenging week; more like a faith challenging week for me.  This is the time of the year I do my complete physical.  You see, since a teenager I've always been an advocate for my own health and well being and I've transferred that same attitude unto my children.  I have always taken vitamins and supplements daily on a regular basis.

 

But, this time around during my yearly physical, I had a test that came back slightly abnormal.  So, I'm thinking "What you mean?...What's that?...What now?...What's my next step???  Needless to say, I had to go through more extensive testing, and during this procedure I found myself singing through it, one of my favorite songs with the lyrics "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus...what a wonder you are....Oh....Jesus, what a wonder you are", and the more discomfort I felt during the test, the louder my singing got!  When it was all over, I began to pray to God over the results that I will get back in about a week.

 

Then here comes the enemy trying to drop all kinds of crazy thoughts in my head and I called on Jesus to comfort me in my waiting and I could hear His voice as clear as I am writing this, saying "if I've done it for you before, why wouldn't I do it for you now?"  I started singing and praising with my music up loud, and the right songs for this time I was experiencing were playing one after another!  That was nobody bu God!  Then, I'd thought about that saying I always hear my Pastor say, "a faith not tested is a faith that can't be trusted."  So during this time of testing, I refuse to allow my faith to waiver or even fear to creep its ugly head up!

 

God did not bring me this far in my life to just leave me!!!  I know He is just beginning a new thing in me;  I felt the stirring up since November 2023, and that stirring up is still going on inside me!  It is something great and I am so glad He chose me for this assignment, whatever it is!!!  He's always told me "this is only a snapshot of what's to come."  So, if that snapshot he showed me a couple of years ago is of what's to come, then I'm sitting pretty!  We sometimes have to be reminded that everything works together for the good of those who love Him.

 

So, with that being said, no matter what we go through or become faced with in life, it was all in His plan; and His plan is always the best plan for our life.  He loves us that much that He mapped out our lives for us before we were even thought of!  What a loving God he is; that's what a perfect love is!
