Bad Things Happen To Good People!!!

Well, the roller coaster hit the high and is heading down for a brief moment, hopefully only a moment.  I've been asking myself why bad things happen to good people?

It's horrible that all of this has happened to so many of us.  These illnesses that are beyond our control and sometimes unstoppable.

But, as a Christian, I believe that this life on earth is only the land of shadows, and real eternal life has yet to begin.  The end is really our beginning.  This doesn't make things easier on our loved ones, or even ourselves when we think of people we are leaving behind.  I'm not necessarily speaking about myself here, because I'm doing okay for now with my treatment I'm praying.

I think a lot of suffering is a test to our faith in God.  Faith doesn't always mean you will live or things will go the way you planned.  It means that you believe He knows what He is doing.  There is a reason for all that will happen.  It doesn't mean we have to be happy about it, but we can do the best we can to accept it.  Life can change so quickly, I can't emphasize that enough.  Please don't worry about the little things and tell your loved ones how much they are loved every day.  You never know when it may be your last.

Please remember the following people in your prayers:  Marla Jones, Coqueace "Koco" Powell, Yolanda "Miss Cotton" Bennett, Cyn Fox, Sonia Moore, Shawnee Lewis, Tonya Broyles, Korri Fields, Karri Lemon, Fusha Roberts, Tasha Flo, Danielle Taylor, Rolando Tate, and also many I forgot to name.They still all have their own battles.

Please pray for the strength and peace for Ana-Alecia Ayala family right now, she was such an inspiration and the real definition of a FIGHTER, WARRIOR, and SHERO,  she has gained her wings. Heaven now has another angel to watch over us. Please see Ana-Alecia Ayala Legacy Fund  to find out more information.

Thank you all for your continued support and prayers throughout my journey too. I still have my faith and continue to believe that all of this is part of God's plan for me, wherever that may take me.  We all have our trials and tribulations, but are never alone, even in our darkest hour.

Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
