Finding My Faith

After the things that I have been through in the last couple of years, I often find myself struggling with my faith. I think that I questions God's motives sometimes and have to remind myself that there is a reason for everything that happens. It is Gods plan for my life, and I just need to give him my all and he will mold and shape me.

Jamie and I haven't been to church in awhile for the fact that I work every weekend and have to sleep during the daytime while service is going on. When we have been we go to Abiding Savior Lutheran Church. We go to the more modern service and really enjoy it. Jamie is a Baptist and I was a Methodist, so we were looking for a church that we both could enjoy. The preacher is young and makes the sermon relate to everyday.

The other day I thought that I needed something to redirect my faith on a daily basis and I found a daily scripture and reading from Joel Olsteen (hope I spelled his name right). I love it, every day Jamie and I read it together and talk about it. I actually look forward to the next days readings and think to myself "he must have known that we are going through this," and "oh my gosh this couldn't relate to me anymore." I am going to make a conscious effort to give a 190% more time and energy to help myself through this struggle and learning period. I will keep you posted on how it goes!!!
