PART 1 of 2 of my daily battle with RA: As I continue to write my story of God's grace that shines upon me I log the daily battles of overcoming what feels impossible at times.  I am empowered and reminded of the power of God's great mercy and love.  I know that it is God's love flowing through me that gets me up to do the great things He has planned for me.  I do not question "WHY" He allows suffering but instead I ask, "Lord, what are you teaching me through this suffering?"  These daily battles wear me down and I cry out for mercy and strength and He never fails me....His love, mercy, and grace are unfailing!  I am reminded that I can do ALL things for it is Christ who strengthens me!

Just as these challenges increased, God touches my soul again as He reminds me that He is with me. He knows the desire of our hearts as well as our needs before we even ask! So on day 75 I smile and God's grace and love will surely take me to day 74 in full fighting force! And just a heads up...yes my feet look a bit different but that's what rheumatoid does. Both ankles have been fused and I live with deformities in my lower leg. These deformities keep me from being able to put my feet flat on the ground. Understand though, it is my Jesus that keeps me grounded in His love, mercy, and grace! I'm ok with all the scars and brokenness left by this disease...

Sometimes when we are in the midst of a storm it's hard for us to feel God's presence. I believe God knows this because EVERY time when I find myself in this situation He always sends me  a messenger or a sign to let me know that He is with me even in my most challenging of moments! His love is never failing! My desire is that I continue to draw closer to Christ through every trial for in my weakness He continues to be my strength.
