Life is not easy. LIfe can be quite brutal but I found out that there's always a silver lining, there's always a way out. There's always something to be thankful for. Something to be happy about. Yes, it might not always be easy to see it, its not always simple to look for the small things.

Yes, there are many times when I wanted to give up. Wanted just to run away, run away from it all and let everybody else handle the problem or just close my eyes and ignore everything and let the pieces fall where they may, even it means finding myself out in the streets with no home, no food and maybe even no family. 

But, through the difficult times I find myself looking up to God with my hand in my chest and seeking for redemption from him. I find myself praying earnestly seeking God's guidance and assistance regarding whatever problem I am facing. I pray for a direct solution to my woes, even demand it. But even as I think of what the right move will be, God allows me to see His infinite goodness by answering my prayers, not in exactly the way I envisioned it or wanted it to happen, but somehow, someway He takes care of me and helps in His way, even when I don't see it, even when I don't appreciate it. He helps, not always in the way we want or in the way we expect, but He's there, always ready to assist, always ready to help always ready to catch us when we fall. We just have to ask. 

I share this because I want people to realize that we are not alone in this fight called life. God is with us. If we allow Him, He will always guide us, always help us. He is and will always be beside us, if we allow Him. So allow Him to cover us with His protection and we will be surprised at how His goodness will envelop us and we will see ourselves prosper in His hands.
