God is Good

So, Christmas was fabulous as always. I enjoyed the company of my family. I stayed with my parents for a few days which is always nice. Caught up with some friends that I normally am not able to spend time with, and of course Jason was still home (which also came with a special "surprise"-thanks Bethany). It was all very peaceful. After Christmas, I went back to VA for a couple days before my trek to Lynchburg for New Year's. Where I spent time with my closest girls! It was nice to just be away and not have a time limit on my time with my "faves". 

This year I did not make a resolution about losing weight, or any other silly thing. I really thought about it and decided that I would try to live out a verse. The verse I chose was Psalm 28:7 

  The Lord is my strength and shield.
      I trust him with all my heart.
   He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy.
      I burst out in songs of thanksgiving.

How many times do we (do I) try to take over God's job? Probably daily, but what happens when we do that? Do we stress less? Does everything work out because we think we are " in control"? Nope. So, this year I really want to "let go". Of course you have to make decisions, but we do not need to fret. God has been so good to me thus far, I can only imagine the great things He has in store for me this year, if I just let Him show me what they are!
