Trust In The Lord...Always

This used to be a beautiful stained glass cross that hung on a little stand. It was that until I dropped it today while I was packing some stuff. UGH! I hate when that happens! It was so pretty. I cleaned up the glass that went EVERYWHERE when I dropped it on the tile and then I went to throw this big main piece away and stopped as I looked at it before it dropped in the trash. I read the verse on it that says "Trust In The Lord". And I thought- hmm... God is telling me something here... Something I already knew, but obviously needed reminded of. This piece used to be in the shape of a beautiful cross-- compare to when life seems to be going perfect. Now this piece is jagged and broken and not so beautiful anymore-- compare to when life isn't going so perfect or we have pieces of life or even of ourselves that are rough and broken and need work. Even when we have those rough, broken, jagged pieces we still need to Trust Him... Just because you can't clearly see the big beautiful picture all the time doesn't mean you try to do life on your own- you don't stop seeking His will just because you can't see the outcome of what is to be. Because His plan is always perfect, just like this cross was before I dropped it :)


Hopefully, this makes sense and I'm just not talking nonsense- it made better sense in my head! lol. Also, Picture quality is terrible, because I've somehow misplaced my camera :(
