Don't stop.

Man! It sure seems like the closer I grow to God, the more troubles come my way.

I guess we are guaranteed that though. The devils always at work. But so is God! I find that whenever bad things happen, hard times come, or everything is ridiculously busy, I'm on my knees a lot in  prayer. 

I heard a song the other day...it's pretty much exactly what I needed! The chorus goes,

Don't stop the madness 

Don't stop the chaos

Don't stop the pain surrounding me

Don't be afraid, Lord, to break my heart

Just bring me down to my knees

Nothing slips through Gods fingers. Hard times come, but his word says in Romans 8:37

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

No matter what comes at us, through Jesus, we have the power to overcome! We are MORE than conquerors! 

Yeah, don't get me wrong, it would be amazing if everything always went right...but then there would be no need for a savior. Honestly, if The Lord made everything go absolutely wonderful in my life I'm not sure that I would be on my knees every day asking for his grace. I wouldn't need him. 

So I say, 

Don't stop the madness

Don't stop the chaos

Don't stop the pain inside of me

Do whatever it takes, Lord, to give me your heart

And bring me down to my knees

Every struggle thrown at me allows me to grow. As well as the non-chaotic times :)

I'm thankful for everything God has allowed me to go through, and everything he has pulled me through. And all the amazing things he has planned for my life, and yours, as we follow in His steps. 

God is good. What? All the time.______ 

Oh! And Lord...DON'T STOP WITH YOUR LOVE. :)

And what makes all this even better is that we aren't in this struggle alone!
