Blessed.

I feel a lot of the times that no one understands. But God does.
He understands everything. Every pain or confusion that I feel. And he feels it with me. He comforts me, even if I'm not aware of it.
So that's why I'm blessed. I'm so blessed to be able to worship my Lord freely and not be persecuted for it. I'm so blessed that I've been given a loving family (even though we never get along), and amazing friends. I'm blessed with an amazing boyfriend who also loves the Lord, and accepts and loves me the way I am. I'm blessed to be able to choose whatever school I'd like to go to.
I'm so blessed. And I could go on and on with this.
I've been studying a lot about faith lately, something that's been lacking in my life recently. But it's cool, because God keeps putting lessons in my life about it, helping, guiding, never letting go.
What amazes me, is that we as people have faith in a lot of things:

  • Our brakes to work.
  • Alarms to wake us up.
  • On others, sometimes.
We have faith in materialistic things like this everyday. But how many of us have faith in GOD like we do these everyday things. That's not fair to us, and especially not our Lord.


I've had faith in a particular verse for a while now. Psalm 138:8The LORD will fulfill [his purpose] for me; your love, O LORD, endures forever--do not abandon the works of your hands.


The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me. I've accepted that I don't control my own life, God does, and that whatever happens, he has a plan. I have faith that he will keep me safe. So why can't I have trust in Him completely, fully.
I am blessed. 


Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops?
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near?
What if trials of this life
Are Your mercies in disguise?
