Keeping faith

Well.  Lately I have been going through a "funk". Unsatisfied with the way I look, have been mediocrely busy at the salon, we have had serveral problems with our plumbing, my little girl jayden, had her tonsils and adenoids taken out and tubes put in her ears, and to top it all off since my husband and I aren't working much we are BROKE!!! I think everyone goes through this "funk" it just happens to be my turn. Well yesterday Kandie (my mother in law), LaCie (sister in law), jayden (my kiddo) and I went shopping to start the remake of the salon. While we are on our shopping spree Austin (my husband) and Scotty (my step father in law) worked on our plumbing in the kitchen. That evening on our way home I called Austin to ask what they wanted for dinner and found out that the problems are larger than we initially thought. MUCH larger.  Austin said since the holes in our concrete are so big, the smell is so horrible, and the dust is so bad (from more jackhammering), not to mention how much of a wreck (literally) our kitchen is he wanted to stay at his mom and step dad's house.  I of course agree and he reminded me to go by the house and get mine and jaydens clothes. As I walk in the house the smell overwhelmed me so immediately I check in the kitchen to see the damage.  I automatically begin to cry. The more I cry the more sorry for myself I being to feel. I woke up this morning an went to our house and picked up a few things and cried some more.  Well, the whole point to me telling you this is today we went to church and I saw my 3 year old little girl singing and praising God.  When we went to pray I saw her praying like a big girl. Today I saw that child-like faith in her eyes of how she knew God would always be with her and take care of her.  This made me think of all that I have taken for granted. We have a home. We are paying our bills. We have that beautiful little girl with the child-like faith. Yes, we are struggling, as many do, but no matter what happens God is with us. He will take care of us and love us. All we have to do is have that child-like faith and trust in God and His plan. Everything will be ok.  If there is something you are struggling with please give it to God. I have a feeling you will be glad you did.
