3. It was then that I carried you

 ^{Psalm 139:16}

You saw me before I was born.
      Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
   Every moment was laid out
      before a single day had passed.

This is a beautiful passage of scripture.

 

But sometimes, when the days get rough, it's a very hard piece of scripture to believe and hold on to.

 

Baby girl, I pray that No matter where life takes you, or what happens, you keep believing that God is right there with you, holding your hand.

Stay faithful to Him. 

Stay strong, knowing that He is in control.

 There is a poem called footprints about how Jesus "carried" us through the tough times.  It's hard to believe, but sometimes, perhaps even always, God is not only "with" us, and carrying us through hard times, but walking us towards them, fully allowing the bad days to come, or even putting us in those hard situations.

 

Listen to the trust Joseph has in the Lord. 

“I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into slavery in Egypt. ⁵ But don’t be upset, and don’t be angry with yourselves for selling me to this place. It was God who sent me here ahead of you to preserve your lives. ⁶ This famine that has ravaged the land for two years will last five more years, and there will be neither plowing nor harvesting. ⁷ God has sent me ahead of you to keep you and your families alive and to preserve many survivors. ⁸ So it was God who sent me here, not you! And he is the one who made me an adviser to Pharaoh—the manager of his entire palace and the governor of all Egypt.

Because of Joseph's trust in God throughout the good days and the bad days, Joseph was able to save his family (ALL of the Israelites) from starving to death!

Just remember Baby girl,  that God loves you, and has good things in store, if you just hold on and trust Him.

God put Jesus in a horrible situation to be beaten and killed, yet it was God's plan.  Sometimes, God's plans for good, involve us going thru hard times first, but it doesn't stop God from being perfect, or from holding your hand. 

Trust Him Baby Girl.

Trust Him Baby.

Trust Him.
