In God's hands



This was the last picture that I took a few months back.

Yes, I cried over it a few times. But hearing such comforting words from loved ones and just gaining encouragement from the Lord, I have learned that nothing is under my control.

The Lord gives and He takes away. There is always something good beneath all of this and beyond.

I am trying to see the bigger picture. Slowly, I am understanding it.

Lord, I am learning that my commitment to my future husband is what truly matters.

There will be greater losses in the future. More daunting than these. How do I react to these things when they come?

Everything is a bonus from you, Lord. I must admit that we get easily blown off by material things, by things that shine. Yet, they fade away too.

I might have gotten too focused on the planning, that I have forgotten what matters the most- that God controls everything. He is the ultimate planner.

Maybe this was a good pause. It was the perfect time to think through things, to reflect, and to see what truly is important in our relationship.

In everything, give thanks to God.
