God's Will Be Done

Let's this straight and out in the open. I am livid. Livid, angry and very, very, very hurt. For circumstances I can't discuss ever, I am in a place now in my walk with God that, perhaps for the first time, I have a full understanding of what it means to leave your family behind, pick up your cross and follow Christ.

I am struggling with decisions I disagree with and I've come to the conclusion that God's will is uppermost in my life. My obedience to His will may be flawed and fragmented at best but I am damned if I don't submit myself to His will and His will alone.

I've never asked of anything from anyone before, at least not in this corner, but I ask now from anyone of you who stumbles into this corner, please keep me and my husband in prayer. We are at a crossroads and it is of utmost importance to us to know, without a doubt, that whatever road we choose, it is with but one thought in mind and it is the road that God has willed for us to walk and it is solely for the glory of God.

Grace and peace to you all.

It is always difficult to understand the actions of man. We often don't understand why things happen. But one thing we can be sure of is that the things we wonder are known to God before they happen. It is providence. All we can do in difficult times is remember His promises and His grace.

I am praying for you. I hope that this Scripture helps:

2 Count it all joy, my brothers,when you meet trials of various kinds, 3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. 4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

God bless you and your household.

I'm not sure what you mean but in order of your questions - still grieving but God is first and foremost in my life so disobedience to His will is out of the question; change is the only constant in my life so I'm not sure what you're asking about and again, as far as "gotten better" I need specifics. Some areas are better, some not, but all in all the only reason I get out of bed in the morning is because God' grace is enough.
