I have to praise my Heavenly Father for something He has been actively helping me with.
One of my biggest struggles is with pride. I have been praying for my Father to take it away because of the trouble it causes. I would pray for a new battle everyday. Each day I would receive one, and I usually lost. Yet I was humbled after each one. God put it in my heart to apologize to the one I went to battle with. I was clearly wrong and he was right, yet I was too proud to admit it at the time of argument.
At the end of my week pride entered into me once again and it was costly. I lost once again. This time it cost the company I work for a lot of money. As I left work that day, I didn't know my fate. I deserved to be fired because I didn't take the precautions that I should have.
Now to rewind a bit. About 2 weeks ago I was getting acupuncture done. I was talking to my Father there while I was waiting wondering if there was something I could do in my personal life to enjoy. I'm one that usually sits inside behind this computer all day...Well as I was talking to Him a thought of taking up Photography came to mind. It was out of nowhere...
I was talking to someone about it at work, and asking where some good spots to take photos would be. He mentioned a place called Silverfalls. I looked it up and it looked great. So going forward to my week of battle. At the end of my week(my days off are Thursday/Friday nights) I was tired of battle. I asked God for a break, and pleaded with Him to cause the sun to come out Friday so I could go to Silverfalls. Well that Thursday morning I bought the camera and the next day Friday it was raining as was predicted. I didn't care, I was going to go anyways. As I was driving the sun popped out and the clouds started to disappear. I almost wanted to cry because I knew God was doing something amazing for me.
Here is what He did for me, I took the following during my hike:
We serve an amazing God. He gave me the greatest break on Friday and walked the entire time with me. He told me that I could trust Him.
