God didn't lead the Israelites the shortest route to the promised land. He led them the longer way on purpose, because they were not ready for war. Their enemies were stronger, bigger, and more experienced than they were. They would have been defeated easily. He used the uncomfortable time in the wilderness to toughen up the Israelites and prepare them for their destiny. We cannot pray away every uncomfortable situation. God is more interested in changing us than he is in changing our circumstances. He loves us too much to leave us where we are. God uses the tough times to get us prepared for the next level. Our tough times are not happening TO us, but FOR us...they are refining us, growing us up, and preparing us to soar. Embrace where you are...(don't settle for mediocrity) but, enjoy your life while you trust God to direct your steps, and prepare you for your future. You know that you are truly trusting God when you have peace, and are at rest while you are waiting. Trust him. Trust his plan. Don't worry while you're waiting. Do what you can, and trust God to do the rest. Some things you can only learn in the struggle. Your destiny is bigger than you think!! Keep passing the tests!! Stay in faith, even when It's difficult...know that God is in control, directing your steps, and keeping you on on the best plan for your life! #goditrustyou #tellyouwhatiknow #happygirljj#whenyouareatrestyouarepassingthetest #bestillandknowthatheisgod#godsplanissomuchbiggerthanmine #ishallnotbemoved #noworries#goditsallinyourhands #dontfighttheprocess #stayinfaith#closeddoorsareablessing

livid, adj . [Screw] you for cheating on me. [Screw] you for reducing it to the word cheating. As if this were a card game, and you sneaked a look at my hand. Who came up with the term cheating , anyway? A cheater, I imagine. Someone who thought liar was too harsh. Someone who thought devastator was too emotional. The same person who thought, oops, he's gotten caught with his hand in the cookie jar . [Screw] you. This isn't about slipping yourself an extra twenty dollars of Monopoly money. These are our lives. You went and broke our lives. You are so much worse than a cheater. You killed something. And you killed it when its back was turned" -David Levithan, The Lover's Dictionary I'm gonna get back to my Asperger's list tomorrow...but, I had something really interesting happen today...and I want to talk to ya'll about it...
