After I posted like a week ago that I haven’t really gotten the time I have needed to write out what is going on in my life and process through the things I have been going through, the Lord totally provides so much time to do that. So here I am…blogging… =)

This week has been an interesting one, and it is only wednesday. So much has gone on. My emotions have gone from being super duper low, to being super high. Today has been one of those days where I have been on the Roller Coaster called EMOTIONS. I woke up in a sad mood. A little discouraged. A little on edge. I went to chapel and J-MO totally rocked it (why I just said that sentence the way I did, I do not know). Got out of chapel and went to pick up my beautiful and newly engaged friend Sarah from the airport (so amazing to see her, by the way). After my discouraging morning, chapel brought my spirits up a little and definitely encouraged me. Then going to pick up Sarah I got a good 40 minutes that I don’t usually get to spend in the word, praying, meditating on scripture, and all the other amazing things that being in a relationship with the Lord brings.

I came upon this gem of a verse: “For he satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul he fills with good things.” Psalm 107:9

I didn’t really think twice about it at the time I read it. I thought it was an amazing verse, I tweeted it, then moved on.

Later on this afternoon, I received some news about a friend that should have crushed me to the core of my being. I should have been so sad and I should have grieved deeply. I should have been upset. I should have been angry. I should have been selfish. To paint a picture for you, if I wasn’t a Christian, today would have been one of the hardest days of my life. As I received that news, yes, there was an initial weight in my gut. Then I took a second to process that information and not let my emotions completely rule my life. 

I realized….

I. AM. FINE.

Better yet, I. AM. GREAT. AMAZING. SPLENDID. EXCELLENT. and any other adjective that shows that I have the Lord and he is in control. There is no reason I shouldn’t be fine and no reason I shouldn’t be praising the Lord right now.

The Lord has brought me to where I am and he has done that with power, might, faithfulness, gentleness, care, love, perfection, and so much more.

Yesterday’s (well, early this morning’s) blog about “Who Jesus is?” had it’s moment to prove itself in my life…and by God’s grace, it did.

“For he satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul he fills with good things.” Psalm 107:9

The Lord has filled my soul with GOOD things…great things even. He has satisfied my longing soul. He has given me so much to praise Him about that I cannot help but be thankful. Thankful for my past and all that it brought and so entirely thankful for my future and all that will become of it because the Lord has been so good to me and has satisfied me and that is enough.

To Be Continued… =)
