Recently, God has been walking me and my family through some extremely rough waters. Our reality of a comfortable life has been completely shaken as a little girl in our family was murdered, and another family member was later arrested for her murder. Our hearts have been broken and our reality shaken. The support of my youth group, close friends, and church has been incredibly amazing. 

 

When all of this drama first started to happen, I found myself constantly wondering “why”. I didn’t like how everything was out of my control.  As things continued to spiral into further confusion and deeper heartbreak, I felt God’s voice telling me to above all else, Trust that He is good. 

 

It was in that moment of complete and utter surrender to the Lord that I realized I had reached a turning point in my faith. Never before had my soul been so satisfied and full simply by knowing that the God of all creation was in control, and I could trust him with everything.

 

Prayers for my family and much needed as we continue through this difficult season of life!
