Trusting in Him.

Her I am, sitting on our front step on a warm, sunny summer day. I love days like this. It's one days like this that I realize just how amazing and powerful God is. Seeing the green grass, the daisies and roses, studying the blue, blue sky. Hearing the bees buzz by, the birds sing their songs. I love that God created things like these. God is so big, so mighty ... He is simply everything I know and believe. I never want to wander from Him, I want to always be near His love and care for me. But, sometimes I forget how marvelous He is. I become distant and I neglect reading my my Bible. When those times come, when I realize that I've become distant, I would go outside and just look around me and listen. Then I would pray.. and I would just pour everything out to Him. I would give Him praise, and I would thank Him for all He has given and provided for me. And I would ask Him to draw me closer to Him. God's creation really brings me back to life, it revives me. It reminds me of how great and awesome He is. I had been feeling that way lately, I have felt like I wasn't as close to God as I should be. So today, I went outside. And I have peace about everything. I am content and happy.This next week, I get to go to our church's summer camp. A couple weeks ago, I was almost positive that I wouldn't be able to go, I didn't have all the money that was required to go. But I continued to pray about it and ask God to somehow allow me to go to camp this year. And somehow, He did. I was able to get all the money I needed, I don't even know how, but I did. And I am so thankful. God really is in control of my life, and I will trust Him with everything.
