Jesus You're all this heart is living for

This weekend has been one of the hardest weekends and one of the best weekends in a while. I never thought I would have to go through something so heart wrenching and tough. It's so emotionally draining. But having the support of all of my family and getting to spend time with them has been such a blessing. There are countless blessings a day that people take for granted and that people don't even notice. My goal for the next week is to spend less time on my phone, less time on the computer and close to no time watching TV. Something I've already been working on is not spending a lot of money on myself, other people could use it more than I could so why be selfish? It's not mine anyways, It's Gods!  Too many of us spend so much time on technology and money when we could be digging in the word or doing something to really benefit our day or someone elses. When you go through hardships like this your view on life and your goals completely change. My life has been spun around and shaken and I've handed it all to the Lord, I've placed it at his feet and I'm trusting him with the outcome, because He has a big plan, and I have faith in Him through this and through everything else. I'm trying to keep my focus on His big picture rather than the small things I've been handed right now. Enjoy the small things in life, rejoice in the blessings you've been given, live your life to the fullest and don't take any of it for granted. Because it can be gone SO quickly. I pray His light shines through me and I continue to let Him use me for the good of His name. I pray that through everything I am going through I keep focus on what is truly important and continue to grow in my relationship with my amazing Abba <3 
Reading through Philippians 1 this week, and rereading some of James. Really want to dig more into the word. When things get tough you just gotta keep on going, but we have an amazing God who will help us through and we're not going through it alone. He will NEVER leave us or forsake us. (Something that really just keeps going through my head through this.) I feel like this post has been WAY too much about me and I don't like that. Gotta keep my focus on Him no matter what!
All praise and glory be to Him! He's amazing. I love you Abba, so much!
