My Life Is Good

My life is good.  I tell myself that every day, not because I don't believe it, but because I do.  I have trials and struggles, and some are really hard sometimes; but my life is good.  Sometimes I am surprised at how good it is.  I think about myself 31 years ago, and the pit I was in.  I think about how I had absolutely no idea what was to come, how good it was going to be; and also how hard it was going to be.  I had no idea...none!  I remember when Neil and I were newlyweds, his sister asked me if I wanted to come to a psychic party; and I said "ABSOLUTELY NOT!"  I knew that if the psychic told me something, and it didn't come true; I would try to force it.  I also knew I would just live my life in a state of waiting. I use to be really superstitious before my faith and trust in Jesus grew to where it is today.  I still fall away and oftentimes try to take control, but then I remind myself that my life is good; and that's not because of me but because of Him.
