Rainy day scriptures...

Oh what a beautiful rainy day! A good day to hibernate! My girls have been feeling a little under the weather anyway so I was tempted to hit the snooze button and go right back to dream land. BUT...life goes on! Life has been throwing us dodge balls but I know that God is on my side and that He will take care of His children. That's the way life goes. No one ever said living a Christan life would be easy. It's far from it but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world! God is so good to me and my family and I love Him so much! I know He is fixing to do something AMAZING and I can't wait to see what it is! I really have no clue what our lives have in store for us but I am just content living day by day as a Christian and as a child of the most AMAZING King! Sometimes I have found that it is easier to take the road most traveled but in the end it's always best to take the longer route, you know, the narrow, curvy road, it always ends up being for the best. I am trying to take that road everyday in my life, no matter who else is taking the "other paths" . I know my road is best. I take wrong turns all the time, I'm human, but He just gets me right back on. It's the people that we meet along the way that make a difference in our lives. Even those we dislike or those who dislike us. God has a purpose for everything and God will have the last word in our life, no matter what we might want. This life is so corrupt, people just don't care anymore but I know that the end is coming soon and in the meantime all I have to do is lean on Him and He will take me safely through.


Matthew 5:
37 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
38 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. *this is a hard thing for me, but I know God's way is best*
40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have [thy] cloke also.
41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more [than others]? do not even the publicans so?
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
