So, after writing that last blog, God has tested me on my ability to believe in the possibilities in beauty after explosions. Bottom line- I believe something beautiful could happen to this little explosion, just waiting to see what it is.

For Everything There's an Analogy...

This time it's nebulae. A star ages and ages until it turns into a red giant. Once a red giant gets really really hot, it explodes and there are leftover gasses that are amazing to see. Things don't always go right in life, it's inevitable. No one ever said life is fair. But even when it feels like everything is going wrong and we can't take it and life just explodes on us, God can still turn that explosion into something beautiful for His glory. ''The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth His handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge.''- Psalm 19:1&2. So, next time life ''explodes'' on you, just remember that God can turn your explosions into something beautiful.

The Healing Powers of Forgiveness
''When I think of all my faults and all my failures when I consider all the times I've let God down, I am humbled by the grace He has extended, I'm amazed at the mercy I have found.''
Personally, I find it amazing that Jesus would die for my sins and forgive me of my offences against Him. I also find it amazing that when I forgive someone, I feel like I've been freed from a burden that I wasn't entirely aware of. It's interesting that only by the help of God can I forgive someone who's broken my heart or trust. In my own power, I could never do that, because I'm pretty good at holding grudges. It just comes naturally, but forgiving doesn't. I'm so thankful God gives me the power to forgive and keep being shaped in the Potter's hands.
