Why is Life So Difficult?

This is a thought that keeps going through my mind, but every time it does, it makes me thank God that these times are sent by him to see if we trust what he has for us during the times of difficulty. Over the summer I've had many of these times, but in trusting God to provide all my needs, not wishes I've found things have turned out good in the end.


But how do you deal with someone who's lost their faith? All I aim to do is get all those who know this person to pray for them and so encourage them to look again at the cross and everything it stands for and to realise that their friends can't take the place of the father of creation and the mighty God I serve. I can't think of anything more depressing than being without my heavenly father, for as some people say, "Life without God is not worth a cent". This is one thing I will never fail to subscribe to as he cares for me each and every day and I can't get away from that.

Recently, not having any paid work around I was able to help with a family house move and have been the only person allowed to drill holes in the new house walls, quite an honour...... !
As well as a relaxing time, it's been a time of steady work getting the packing cases emptied ready for returning to Pickfords and trying to get a digital television ariel sorted out for the BT Vision Box, which is incidently an ongoing project as I need my tall ladder which is at present residing in Bognor Regis and needs collecting from there. The next headache I have is having a car that's in need of expensive repairs to pass it's MOT that expires on the 22nd October and the need to scrap it to save the expense. The only trouble I have is that I only have four hundred pounds to spend on a replacement. As far as I can see, thanks to the governments scrappage scheme, cheep cars are very few and far between, so it's going to be touch and go if I can get a replacement in time.
So after all this, with no work in the near future, but possible work pending, I look forward with anticipation to what my father has planned for me and how his will will be demonstrated to me.


If as you have read this you want to pray for me, please feel free and if you have a word of encouragement or God forbid, a rebuke please feel free to e-mail them to me whenever you feel led. As I close now I pray that each of you who reads this will recieve a rich imparting of his Holy Spirit and may feel his presence more than your nearest and best friend God Bless ...........
