Journey Day 12

"Though he brings grief he will show compassion, so great is his unfailing love." My heart has been so achey the past couple of days. The only thing that has given me comfort has been God's word, especially lamentations 3:32! Even though I am sad, I know that God shows me compassion and loves me. He has plans for me, to prosper and a hope for my life. He will heal all my wounds, even the ones that are cut the deepest. He will restore my life again, and give me incredible strength. "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." (Matthew 5:4) He binds up my wounds and takes my sadness upon himself. Although sometimes I still hurt, I can remind myself of God and his love and I am comforted. The idea that God knows what's best for me, and has an awesome plan for my life, is such an incredible comfort in my journey towards a heart after his own heart; one that reflects his love and compassion. My relationship with God is such an amazing blessing, and my prayer is that he will deepen my relationship with him. My relationship with him is truly becoming my most important relationship, which is exactly where I want to be!
