One needs to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames are the hottest as to burn away all the impurities. His eyes never leave the precious metal and knows it is refined & finished when He can see His own image in it....May He see His image in me.

All the Time

My heart has so much to be thankful for but yet I'm full of heartache. I have so much to wake up to but yet I tend to struggle to rise from my bed. So many blessings have come my way but yet I am weighed down by the tribulations that I face. The miracles speak for themselves but yet I struggle to 'hear' them.

God is good all the time. I was recently reminded of this by a dear friend. And you know....HE IS!

So in the midst of my heartache, struggles, tribulations AND 'loss of hearing', I am aiming to focus on His goodness. All the junk the world brings does not take away any of this goodness. Just because trials roll our way, doesn't mean that He is not as good as when things seem to be going our way.

It's all about attitude and perspective. And no matter which way you turn it, what color lens you look through, how you hold it or whether the glass is hold empty or half full....God IS good ALL THE TIME!
