"God's Timing is Perfect"

I have always believed in this phrase, “God’s timing is perfect.” Sometimes it’s hard to believe in this phrase when you are stuck in the particular situation you are dealing with. Over the past 48 hours I have been more aware that this phrase is true. What’s even more comical (but not really at all) is that God has taught me this lesson through other people’s hardships and situations. The situations that have happened to my friends are not funny what so ever, they are hard and gut-wrenching at times but knowing and believing that “God’s Timing is Perfect” I am able to help console them and help them to move on and in turn I am learning such a huge lesson.

I’ve always known that God has a really funny sense of humor and these days when I start doubting Him or believing in His plan for me-He brings me back to reality and throws a situation in my face that I just have to fully trust and believe in Him. That is hard sometimes, really hard to just TRUST-after failed relationships, friendships and people just letting you down its hard to TRUST, but when I really think about this- God has never hurt me or let me down so WHY do I have such a hard time fully trusting Him? This is something that I’ve been struggling with for a while and it has becoming one of my goals to just learn how to trust God FULLY (with everything I have). I am praying through this-and will keep you updated on this process.

I am praying for you-please let me know if there is anything I can pray for you for individually- please don’t hesitate to contact me (l.sallarulo@gmail.com ) Thanks for reading! J

2011 is MY year!

I know everyone has New Year's Resolutions that they may or may not keep after the first month or so into the New Year. Well I've been that way for most of my life- I would make the same resolutions year after year to lose weight, love myself and just be happier, etc.

Well 2011 is going to be MY YEAR! I've started the year off on the right foot and have made attainable goals for this year. I am excited to see how this journey will pan out and I am excited to share this journey with my fellow bloggers.

I've started reading blogs maybe about 6 months ago and they have literally changed my life. I know that may sound really weird- but it's SO true. I love to read others blogs and to learn that they are other people out there going through some of the same things as me and I can learn so much about myself by reading words on a screen. I love anything motivational and I have found myself becoming so motivated after reading others blogs. I thank everyone who has a blog and has shared their lives online for others! You never know when your words can inspire someone else.

So I've decided to start my own blog (I used to think, wow...I don't know if I would have enough to say in a blog and really? would anyone read what I have to say). I hope that maybe someone out there will be able to read my blog and it could perhaps be exactly what they needed to hear at the right time and it could have the same affect that the blogs I read have on me.

I hope you will follow me on this journey!
