You know I was in the threads and I was responding to one of wwjd_kilden's post where she was praying for a job and an apartment. It was while responding to her thread that I started to really think and dwell on my God and on how no matter how fierce the storm of life is He really truly becomes your calm in the center of the storm that is your life. Once the storm has passed its almost like you look down at yourself and see that you are perfectly whole and came out completely on top. Then you realize why, you realize that God had you the whole time. He has your circumstances completely under control if you belong to Him. If you have a heart and a mind and a spirit and a soul that reaches for Him because you belong to Him as His child, you are safe in the hands of My Jesus.
It was like a 2 x 4 smacked me up side the head with the dawning realization that I trust my God with every single part of me. Every minute of every day I trust Him. I feel like God gifts you with stronger and stronger faith (like levels) the more you reach for Him. With that faith oh my comes this freedom of ones mind. I wish I could just show you ((grinz)) but that is something only God gives to the ones who seek Him.
 
yes i agree and also the levels of faith just goes deeper and deeper. for me also i noticed the suffering goes deeper and deeper. I am going through my first spiritual suffering, I can still understand what god is saying to me and i thank him for the suffering because i can shine for him even here in my storm. But half the time my soul is so weakened and tired and i can feel my soul gripping on to god with all it's might trying not to give up. But i always look to god and even if i don't have the strength to read the bible i can at least pray to god. I tell him how i love him and i ask for strength and how i know he is allowing my suffering for his goodness. Honestly i seem to have the most faith when i am suffering LOL. God is so faithful and loving that even when my soul and body are weak from the spiritual attack I can always find the words to tell him how good he is.
 
Yeah when you accept that our journey is under constant spiritual attack and accept the fact that being a child of God is sometimes really hard but you keep on reaching for Him and you keep on loving Him and thanking Him for the hardships everything is always just ok no matter how chaotic the storms of life swirl around you you come to know with every fiber of your soul that you rest in the hands of our Creator and that you are safe in His hands.
