It's been so long since I've blogged. I can blame it on being busy with work, life and ministry but honestly I just haven't had the desire to share. But today is a new day and I'm reminded that being alive is all the reason to praise God. Today I am choosing to focus on God and not my circumstance and I hope to encourage you to do the same.
I wrote this piece a few months ago but I would love share it with you. I hope it blesses you as much as it blessed me this morning.

There are times when I don't feel God. When I feel like my prayers aren't being answered and the pain in my heart feels unbearable. During those times I lose focus of how great God is because my current situation looks so bleak. I lose sight of ALL God has done for me because of those moments of "silence" but it shouldn't be this way. In the silence, I need to be encouraged and remember ALL that God has done in the past and stand on His great promises and His perfect plan for my life.
God doesn't have to do anything else...He is always deserving of the highest praise! He sent His son to die for our sins...to give us eternal life...what more do we need?? Even if your present situation is full of chaos we need to know and should stand on the truth that God loves us. He won't leave us to fend for ourselves, He is always with us and in Him we have the victory! So praise God in the good times and the bad! Praise Him even before you see any change to your situation! Praise Him because He can turn any situation around!
Psalm 23: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Psalm 34:1 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
