difficult days...

hey y`all! so today was a ton better than yesterday. yesterday was pretty much one of those difficult days you know? && so i went to Jesus about it, and thats what i did my devotion on, so i'll tell y`all about that in a minute. first, why yesterday was so bad was well at school, my shoe broke, and then i fell up the stairs, then went to church and had drama with someone i really really hate to fight with. but when i got home i prayed about it, and Jesus showed up in a big way. i was just telling rachel about how i wanted to talk to kody about it b/c hes a really good friend and he makes me feel better and like 2 seconds later, no joke, he calls me to see whats wrong cause he knew i was upset at church. that is a real friend, gosh kody thank youu babe. haha. anyway then i talked it out with the person i had drama with and all is good. okay so i read 2 Corinthians 4:8-9 last night...which says, "We are trouble on every side yet not distressed: we are perplexed but not in depair; persecuted but not forsaken; cast down but not destoryed" which i thought was cool because its noticably where the song 'Trading my Sorrows' comes from [we're pressed but not crushed, persecuted not abandoned, struck down but not destroyed] anyway it tells us that we will go through troubles but to not let them get to us b/c Jesus is there and even though were persecuted Jesus will NEVER abandon us, and we can ALWAYS go to him when we have a problem, or a difficult day. and he will make it so much better, like he did for me last night. thank you so much Jesus. i also read Psalm 112:7, "He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed trusting in the Lord" which tells us, we shouldnt be afraid of troubles and bad things that happen to us b/c if we trust in the Lord with all our hearts, he'll be there. Jesus promises us that, hes always with us, always in my heart with me:] and i love having him here. hes amazing. so remember, if you have a difficult day, trust in God, b/c he'll show up big time like he did for me last night!!!
well i love y`all!
God Bless!
