Have you ever met someone who just exudes good "vibes"? Someone who just seems totally unfazed by lifes constant shifting and the worries of day to day life? I won't say this is encompassing all people like that, but I would wager that for a large portion it is due to God's grace. When we have God's grace, things that really use to bother us just seem distant and conquer-able. He gives us a constant shoulder to cry on, a steady rock to lean on and is always there in our time of greatest need. These are among many of the reasons that myself and millions of other followers of Christ feel comfort in times of sorrow, release in times of pain and in times of joy, that joy is multiplied a thousand fold because we know that in all things God works for good.
A wonderful example of my previous statement is a girl I know and adore named Destiny Armstrong. She lives right here in my community and was diagnosed with Lymphoma recently. Through all the treatments, the pain and fear, she has stuck to a motto that gives her strength "God's got this". And He does. God doesn't promise that when we accept Him that our lives will be picturesque, but He does promise that He will take our burdens and that we can call upon Him at any time.
I ask for my readers to consider this. Think of Destiny and the strength she gains by trusting in God. Not only has He given her strength through this, but has also used her as a remarkable reminder that He indeed does "Got this".
