I have been studying Ecclesiastes. There are two things that keep on coming up and helping me in this time of my life. The first is life is meaningless without God. But with God life is meaningful and has a purpose.
The other picture that comes into my mind is God's hand holding us even when we life is so crazy and it seems like the bad things keep on happening. I can imagine myself freefalling through the sky and his hands holding me up.
Life is not always going to be sunshine and roses. One thing I have learned in the last couple of years is God uses the hard times to bring you closer to him. To remember that he is holding you up. I have a great friend that I have been meeting with to go through the good and bad things in my life and also to help guide me through some difficult times. When it seems like family and friends have deserted me or if I tell them what was happening at one time and I was being judged. God I see still with me guiding me. Helping me learn more about Him. How to laugh and how to truly love. His hands surround me with His Love and protect me. Even through we can be hurt by this Eorld heaven is going to be a wonderful place where we can experience his perfect love. We can never experience this type of love in this life because we are imperfect. I have just been enjoying the thought that He is holding me through all of this. And as I have a greater love for Him and listen to how he is guiding me I will feel a fraction of the Love that he actually feels for me.
