He is still here......

   Where do I even begin.......

   God is here..... God is good.... He is who he says He is ... and HE will do what he says HE will do.

   So .... 

  Where is HE .. you may be wondering... ?

  HE is in the air you still breathe, the birds that still sing, the flowers that are beginning to bloom, and all the little things we seem to take for granted everyday. HE is in the laugh of a child, HE is in the smile you give to  stranger, He is in EVERYTHING!!!

.... He is also in the pain your feeling, in the anxiousness you can't seem to let go of, the sleeplessness, the ache in your heart so raw that you think it can never get better, and the pain of a loss so deep it seems like you've been consumed. 

He is there in those places too.... often He is holding us.... when we feel as though we have nothing left. When we can't move forward even an inch, when every breath is almost a gasp... 

 HE IS THERE!  

He is with you... I know... because He is with me, and was with me, in every one of my own moments and recently there have been many. AND HE has promised to be there for ALL of them.... good and bad.

God is Good... He is LOVE... HE is LIGHT... HE is an Ever present HELP in times of trouble....

HE never changes... 

ALL this may seem jumbled to you.. or it may seem like a blessing in this moment.. I don't know what God will use this for in your life... but HE will use it.. ultimately.. for His glory if you are willing to let Him. 

Often we (me) get so caught up in our feelings that we forget His truth... which also (surprise) never changes...  

What I am learning about Him, His love, His timing, His plans, and His glory... this is barely just a scratch on the surface.... hopefully stay tuned for more specifics and TRUTH in the near future...

In the meantime...

      remember ... You are loved... You are not forgotten... You are precious in His sight.
