Last year, as I moved in with my mom to take care of her and left behind all my things and fur babies, I went through a period of depression, worry, resentment and, perhaps, even anger.
I cried almost daily and as I searched for a way to find peace, given I could not change the situation, I read the following verses:
Proverbs 3:5-6King James Version5. Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.6. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
It struck me like a ton of bricks. As I memorized these two verses, I felt peace come into my heart and I was able to let go of the negative feelings I had been harboring.
I am not saying that is has been smooth sailing from that moment on. As a matter of fact, I have had to repeat those verses several times in these past months. However, what I am saying is that Heavenly Father is aware of each and every one of us. He knows what we need, what we are experiencing, and what is best for us and those whom we associate with. Therefore, we should put our trust in Him as He will do what is best for all of us involved and He will give us the peace we seek, as we try to follow His plan for us.
May each of us find comfort in the knowledge that He loves us, and He will never do anything that is not best for us. And with this knowledge, may we all learn to trust Him. He is our perfect Father in Heaven.
