Today was a very interesting day when it came to church services. This morning whenever I was in service, the transitional pastor was speaking (our pastor retired), and at the end he was talking about not losing sight of your faith, and holding on even through the hard time. Then tonight, this other guy did the same thing. It was amazing how God made both the sermons fit together perfectly. Tonight he was talking about how we all go through struggles and how we cant lose sight of out faith because that will make it so much harder for us to get through it. And he talked about how we sometimes feel like God is not there for us and that we cannot feel him working in our lives even though he is. It was amazing. It really hit me. The guy that talked tonight (I dont know his name by the way haha), also had everyone bow their heads and close their eyes and asked who is going through a hard time in their life right now or is struggling with something to raise their hand, so I did, because I almost walked away from my faith earlier this week because of everything that had been going on. It was exactly what I needed to hear today, and it made me almost cry.
Now it's time to go write letters to friends :) goodnight all!

Hannah bear(ha) I'm so sorry that you've been feeling this way. And you know, sometimes it is extremely difficult while going through struggles especially ones you are dealing with, but please know that God is taking care of you. He loves you so much and even though there are hard times right now, you have to be like Job. He lost everything- all of it- in a day, but he didn't abandon his faith. He knew that it was all part of a bigger picture and that for his faithfulness, he will surely be blessed. I'm glad the speakers spoke to you tonight and please know and understand that I love you very much and am praying for you and your family through all of this. I'm here for you- so is God.
