When I tell you that God is good… I need for you to believe me! Now I have to admit, sometimes I struggle with faith but He always shows himself faithful to me! Truly, I don’t deserve it but he continues to show mercy.

So here’s the deal… I’m making it. Continuously grinding. But I am in no way without need for a little stimulus. In this economy times are just tight. With my son’s birthday coming up, owing Louisiana tax money [side eye to them] and paying for school out of pocket, I was surely wondering how it all would get taken care of.

BUT you see I know someone who can make things happen when no one, not even Barack Obama, can make them happen. I have definitely learned to have stronger faith. My control issues sometimes will have me trying to do it on my own. It is truly an exercise of faith to let go and let God. I have a plaque in my room that says ‘Worry Ends Where Faith Begins’ and it’s so very true. So I let my faith do the work…

Just as the Lord always does, he proved himself merciful and forever faithful. He took nothing… when I say nothing, I mean zero, nada, not a penny and turned it into what equaled to about one months salary in ONE NIGHT! Tell me He isn’t an awesome Father.

All that, despite my imperfections! Despite my struggles with faith! He always makes a way. So I felt I should publicly praise him!

This song of praise has been in my spirit, it’s one that I sing all the time… it simply says:

Great is your mercy towards me
Your loving kindness towards me
Your tender mercy I see
Day after day

Forever faithful towards me
Always providing for me
Great is your mercy towards me
Great is your grace
