Above is a link to a song that I discovered yesterday while looking for worship music for Sunday. It hit hard. Over the last month it's been a struggle. I've been completely nasty. Example. Justin flat out told me that I needed to do what God told me to do. I responded, "He will get over it. I did." I had a terrible attitude. I wasn't doing anything out of joy anymore. I was angry at God. I felt neglected, ignored, unqualified, and worthless. After some 'face smacking' preaching, I realized that I was allowing myself to be in the place I was in.
Yesterday, we had a wonderful woman stand up and talk about how God had her in a season of stretching and it wasn't the most pleasant place to be. She talked about Psalm 91. She said that the Lord was her fortress. She was so thankful for the season, even though it was hard.
Seasons aren't the same for each person. Some are the best moments of your life. Some are harder. Right now I'm going through one of the hardest I've dealt with, thus far. I'm learning so much. It's about obedience. A lot of days I have to fight myself and my flesh beyond what I ever thought I would ever have to. God keeps reminding me that I have to be faithful in the little things before He will elevate me to the next level.
No matter what season you are in. Remember to praise God. He deserves it. Throughout today, find something to praise God for. Even if it's the fact that you are breathing. Yesterday Pastor Corey talked about David in Psalm 30. He was thankful for breath because he had been very ill. So he was like. Thank God I woke up on this side of the ground today. Thank God, even when it hurts. Even when it's great.
