Just a thought for the day :)

Okay so I know I haven't posted in a while...and not going to lie I probably won't for a while because when I'm in school I'm freakishly busy and the only times I have free are really just dedicated to sleeping. So...sorry. But my brother just sent me this forward that I honestly love.

Sometimes we wonder,*
'What did I do to deserve this?' or
'Why did God have to do this to me*?'
Here is a wonderful explanation!
A daughter is telling her Mother how *everything
is going wrong*, she's failing algebra, her boyfriend
broke up with her and her best friend is moving away.
Meanwhile, her Mother is baking a cake and
asks her daughter if she would like a snack, and the
daughter says, 'Absolutely Mom, I love your cake.'
'Here, have some cooking oil,' her Mother offers.
'Yuck' says her daughter..
'How about a couple raw eggs?' 'Gross, Mom!'
'Would you like some flour then?
Or maybe baking soda?'
'Mom, those are all yucky!'
To which the mother replies:
'Yes, all those things seem bad all by themselves.
But when they are put together in the
right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake! '
God works the same way.
 Many times we wonder why
He would let us go through such* bad* and *difficult *
times. But God knows that when He puts these things
all in His order, they always work for good! We just
have to *trust* Him and, eventually, they will all
make *something wonderful*! *
God is crazy about you.*
He sends you flowers every spring and 
a sunrise every morning.
Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen.
He can live anywhere in the universe, and He chose your *heart.*

I love it! How much peace it brings to me to know that God is aware of everything that I'm going through and that all of my struggles and shortcomings are all there for a reason. They are all part of God's plan for me and if I just continue to have the faith to endure, everything will work out in the end!

I just want you all to know that I know with a surety that God loves YOU! He loves you and me and every single one of us. We can't even fully comprehend how much He loves each of us because we can only understand him loving so many people in a mass. But we are not just a faceless mass to Him. He loves us individually. I am so thankful for that knowledge. Life is great, even through all the stressful and hard times. We have so much to be thankful for.

Love you all!
