Though none go with me

"Though none go with me, I will follow, I will not turn back."

I watched Though None Go with me last night. I had seen it before although I don't remember when. It made me cry. I thought it was a powerful movie about following God's will. It is not easy to say to God "your will, not mine." I've often times found myself grappling with this concept. "but, God I want it my way." "God, I was sure this was meant to be." It can be discouraging when things don't go our way. We feel good about something and then it is taken away. I've suffered many losses. My godfather died, my dog died, my grandma being sick, almost losing the house to foreclosure and it being in foreclosure again soon if we don't come up with money that we don't have at the moment. During all these times and continuously I ask myself why do these things happen. Then I remember that God has a plan. God's way is not my way even though many times I wish it was. It is not always easy to trust a higher power but we have to keep the faith. Many times I feel like giving up and then I try to remember there must be a reason why I'm here. There is more to life then this. I trust in God and in the end things work out for the best.
