When Life Happens

Hi Friends,

It’s been a long time since I’ve been actively involved the ministry, so I feel like I'd like to share something from my heart.

Last year, I found myself in a place of deep sorrow following a family crisis.  It completely blindsided me. I was in despair and trying to carry my burdens without God’s help.

I lost sight of the goodness of God.  I was a mess.  My Grandfather used to say to me all the time…”No matter how bad something is, God will always pull something good out of it”.  I lost sight of that too.

My circumstances have not changed.  In fact, I am now facing unexpected health issues, and the struggles in my family continue.  God didn’t change my circumstances, but He is changing me!  I am finally placing those struggles at Jesus’ feet and leaving them there.

I am enjoying life again.  The despair is gone.  My outlook is completely joy-filled, and God is putting my broken heart back together.  Only He can do that!

I’ve learned so many things during this season of my life.  One is that God loves me even when I’m a mess.  His love never changes.  Two, I cannot carry my burdens alone.  They’re too heavy, and Jesus promised to take our burdens and give us rest.  I will share the Scripture below.

Are you in the midst of sorrow?  Have things in your life broken your heart?  Do you feel alone and wonder how you’ll get through each day?  I want to tell you that there is HOPE!  Hope has a name, and His name is Jesus!  Also, the Bible says that He is no respecter of persons.  What does that mean?  It means that we all find ourselves in a mess sometimes, and if God can heal me, He can heal your heart too!

Looking forward to the next chapter of Drops of Faith Art Ministries in 2019!  May God richly bless you, and always remember…you are loved, you are valuable, you are not alone, your tears matter to God, and you can find rest for your soul in Him. 

If you wish to request prayer, please see the space provided to do so right here. Our team is more than happy to pray on your behalf, and any request will be confidential.  Don’t be shy!  Much love to all of you!  I will close with these precious words from Scripture that Jesus spoke:

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.  Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  For, My yoke is easy, and My burden is light”.

Matthew 11:28-30
