Sometimes I get discouraged.  I know we all do.  But sometimes I just wonder why my life has turned out like it has - why my health is so poor, why I am so financially strapped all the time even though I try so hard to be a good steward of the money I do have, why I feel so all alone.  I often joke that I know that God has a reason for everything but that will be the first question I ask Him when I do see Him face to face - WHY????  
But then I realize that no matter what happens, He is beside me every step of the way.  He is always there for me to give the strength and courage I need to face each day.  He is there to comfort me when I am afraid.  He is there to encourage me when I feel overwhelmed.  He is there to give me insight and inspiration to confront the problems I face.  All I need to do is to trust in the Lord and turn everything over to Him and relinquish my imaginary control!
I thank you, Lord, for all You do in my life - the precious daughter You have given me, for the strength and courage You give me, the friends I have in my life that mean so much, the comfort You give me.  I ask your forgiveness for those times that I do lose my trust and get discouraged.  I do trust in You!!
      I will love You, O Lord, my strength.  The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust.       Psalm 18:1-2
