Not All Life is Sad

     There is so much pain and sadness in this world, so many things that we can be upset or devastated over. And often there is so much bad, that the good is just disappears into the dark clouds. I find that quite often some of the worst things in life are of our own making. Our minds can be so stubborn, we will dwell on one bad thing so long that we miss all the good things that are happening in our life.
      I do indeed have many things to thank God for and to be happy about. He has blessed me in so many ways with love and family and friends and possessions. He will always do what is best for me, and I know this. He sends so many blessings to me, and I must be sure to count them carefully when the darkness is closing in.
      This does not always make the darkness and the greif go away of course. But it is comforting to know that God has my life in his hands, and that He will always do what is best for me. Greif was also given to us by God, but it has it's place. I must always be careful not to let it rule my life, or all the good things that He has given me will go past with out my knowledge.

My life and my love are in his hands,
They are not mine to control,
I must leave it all in his precious hands,
And live out my God given role.

I can't always see it, I can't understand,
I know that he sees it all,
So I will live by his word and trust his grace,
Following him I can never fall.

She came by his hand when I needed her,
He did send her, I still believe,
And though this pain does not make sense,
His merciful love I can still receive.
