God is So Good :)

I honestly don't know where I would be without my Lord, Jesus Christ. He is my rock, my strength, and my joy! 

It has been a difficult semester with a huge work load and challenging (but sometimes interesting) classes. We just had a couple days off and, may I say, that they were very much needed. Over the break, I read an amazing book by Erynn Mangum (who is a dear, dear friend of mine) called Miss Match. 

While reading this book, I started to truly think about God's sovereignty and this book mentions it numerous times. Like the main character, Laurie Holbrook, I have struggled with this thought; the thought that everything is for God's plan and He is in control of everything (the good, bad, ugly, and pretty). 

One of the verses that is mentioned in this book that I have never run across before but thought was incredible is Psalm 37:4. It reads, "Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart." Awesome, huh?

I have been thinking about my life a lot lately and I now have a pretty good understanding of the path God has set out for me at this moment in time. I am single and just praising God for this time that I have to build my relationship with Him and thanking Him for the dear friends and family I have around me. I have been so blessed in life that even through the bad God has always been there when I needed Him, even before I knew who He was!! What a great God! :) I love Him and He is all I need to be happy in life right now. I keep looking for more but I know the answer is always in my heart. 

Thank you, Erynn, for writing such amazing books like Miss Match, Rematch, Match Point, Cool Beans, Double Shot, Latte Daze, and Sketchy Behavior. I love you! :)

Time to start rereading Rematch! :)

God bless!! :)
