Trusting In My Tomorrows

When I starting dating Josh, I wasn't in the best place in my life. I was a single mother, just gotten out of a relationship that had rocked my reality, and struggling with the balance of my recommitment to the Lord and the life I was used to living. To say the least, I wasnt looking for a life long commitment when I spent my first weekend with Josh down in Dallas. I think back on that weekend frequently. Josh had also just gotten out of a serious relationship and was on the last stages of his healing process. To say it was fate is an understatement. We fell asleep the first night holding hands. I swear I felt like we were 15...but it was absolutely amazing. He didn't even try to make a move, which was very much refreshing to me. The next morning he had to leave early for a baseball game. He got his things together quietly as I pretended to be asleep. He walked over, leaned down and kissed me on the cheek, and left. Perfection. THAT...was the beginning of our relationship.

 Ok...now to the point of this story that I hold so dear to my heart. At church this morning, my pastor said something that rang by bell. He said "God was for me so much in my yesterday's that I can trust him in my tomorrows" I look back on that April weekend of 2009 and stand in awe of God's timing. I was not in a good place and at times I felt that God wasn't working FOR me...but what I realize now is that God was working IN me. God had me go through everything I did to lead me to that weekend. He worked in me the entire time...making me the person i needed to be for the man that would one day be my husband. He took two people who were healing, placed them together, and connected our hearts forever, through HIM. He was there for me in my yesterdays. In no way, shape, or form will I say that my life if perfect. Josh and I have had and will have our fair share of struggles but we have CHOSEN to trust in the Lord because in all reality... We wouldn't even be WE with Him in the first place.

We trust Him with our tomorrows. No matter what happens In our future...we choose God. Because if God is for us, who can ever be against us?

{The first weekend we ever spent together}

Until next time...
