I often read on these forums and also words from friends and family about how certain events or occurences in their daily lives are going bad for them. Isn't Christianity about helping us to forge ahead in joy and gratitude for our many blessings?
So my question to CF: Is your life GOOD in general? I can think about the many blessings in my life and my relationship with God and Christ. It's not about such things as having an awesome career, or material stuff, etc. I recogize that in this stage of my life that God truly is my source for all. I think the key is to be ever-grateful for even the smallest good that may come my way. I can look back over my life and now see where God has had his hand on me and helped me through difficult, and seemingly "impossible" situations in the past. I can now see that God was trying to get my attention and bring me closer to Him. So yes, life is GOOD!
