Soo I have never really wanted to tell people my story and what I have been through for fear they would feel sorry for me. I do not want people to pity or feel sorry for me. I have come to endure my pain and trial for they have made me who I am today. Through all of them I have found a new faith in God. I hope that by reading my blogs people can gain a new understanding and insight about their own life. If I can make a difference in one persons life then my goal has been met.
I have went thru the whole blaming God phase. Why do I always have to deal with the tough stuff while others who seamless worthy are able just to coast through life Scot free. I have gained a new understanding that God "uses" the bad things he knows are going to happen in order to achieve the good things he desires. I also know that every single bad thing that happens to you in your life can be transformed into something good. God promises that ALL things work together for good, for those who love God and are called according to his purpose. God does not promise that most things will work for good but again that ALL tings will work for good.
In the beginning I know that it was hard to see any good that has come from all of my bad experiences. Really what good can come from a failed engagement, debt, my babies father dying, and from attempting to raise a child as a single mother. I could not see any good from any of those experiences in the beginning but every so slowly God is showing me some of the good that he has planned for me. In this life we may never know the whys to everything but we just have to trust that God knows what is best for us. Til next time . . .

ReplyDeleteHi Brandy,
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear you're doing well and I look forward to reading your blog. You're very brave to share your experienced with everyone!
Take care,

Just something to ponder, my dear. Although you have endured more tragic things than many of those around you, remember that those people often don't share how tough their life really is for the same reason you don't: we don't want pity. By sharing this with others, maybe you will encourage those going through a tough time to talk about it as well. We can all heal together. Love you.
