I'm taking a 30 minute break before I finish the last 3 hours of my 12 hour shift. This week has left me missing my husband and our sons, our home in an upheaval, and my emotions beating me down. I try so hard to keep things in perspective and consider how this is only temporary...
My perspective is limited. God sees the bigger picture and so I will have faith that He is working all things for His good, including me and my emotional tantrum.
A co-worker asked me today what I believed. I made sure he was talking about my spiritual beliefs, which he was. I shared how I believe that God created everything and everyone. He loves us and has the bigger picture in mind. I believe that Jesus is the Son of God and that he died on the cross for our sins, leaving us with the Holy Spirit.
I asked him what he believed and he said the same. I confirmed that he believes in God and then asked him why. Puzzled, he questioned me. I repeated myself and asked him WHY he believes in God.
He told an amazing story about going from religion to a personal relationship with God. How God was still working on him but that he was a changed man. God saved his marriage and him. That's why he believes in God.
Everyone has a story to tell.
A story of deliverance and salvation.
What's yours?
