Trying times

[Shammu]

Catty, I'm still praying for you sister.

WOW, how time flies! Greetings to everyone. I hope that everyone is feeling the blessings flowing in their lives. I just wanted to update you on things here. My husband's dad past away the first of May, my husband got to see his oldest daughter which has not seen in about 17 years and at the end of May my 17 yo  moved out and in with her boyfriend and his dad. She wants to show me how grown up she is. Well, that so far is not working as she has not done some things I told her that she needs to do and if she doesn't she will not get the care for the baby like she needs to. Anyways, I am rejoicing in the Lord any how as I can not allow satan to step in and try to discourage me. I know what happens in the end and regardless of what my family does I can not allow that to effect what GOd wants to do in my life. Do not get me wrong I pray for them, but I have rejoice and serve God with all of my heart, soul and mind and I can not do that if I allow these things to take priority in my life. I woke up the other day and God spoke to me and this what He said. You can not cry over spilled milk. In other words, you can not continue to look in the past and dwell over things that have happened and are happening. We have to get our minds off of our problems because most things we can not control anyhow and leave them to God.
OK I am sure I have bored you long enough. I just want to praise God for his blessing and his love.

Catty/Kathy, I'll be praying for your daughter.  I'm sorry to hear about your father-in-law death, my prayers for the family will be going out.

Thanks DW, I am sad for his death since he did not know God I am sure even though he was of the Baptist faith. From what I witnessed he was lost, I pray that he knew what was happening and he had a minute to ask Jesus into his heart.

Sister Kathy,

We are still praying for you and your family. I sense in your posts that you are getting stronger and stronger in the LORD. We can lay everything at the feet of JESUS, pray, and know that HE will work everything out for good for them who love HIM. You've had some hard and rough things to deal with, but GOD is with you.

Kathy - KEEP LOOKING UP!

Love In Christ,
Tom

Psalms 31:19 NASB  How great is Your goodness, Which You have stored up for those who fear You, Which You have wrought for those who take refuge in You, Before the sons of men!

Philippians 4:6 NASB  Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

Hi Kathy, as you said we cannot serve God wholeheartedly if we are constantly dwelling on our problems. God knows what they are you have been praying, and He has been waiting for you to just let Him do the work. 

One thing I learned early in life, you can't move forward if you're constantly looking back.
