I Need God

Coming back to Ukraine this time wasn't so easy. We had a great time in the States, and it was hard to come back without a place to live. One night, while I was feeling really down, I decided to start reading a book. Reading is a great distraction for me. I love getting lost in a good book. Well, all I could find on the shelf were non-fiction books. (My other books hadn't gotten here in the box yet.) I kept looking and found the closest thing I could to a fiction book, A Heart Like His by Beth Moore. It's a reflection of the life of David.



I can safely say that this book has been a huge blessing to me. I have been challenged in many different ways. One of the biggest ways is this: I need God. I know that sounds stupid, because "of course you need God." I always knew that fact, but it has really been hitting me for the first time lately. Praise God for this!!! I need God for my salvation and for my everyday life. I need Him to live in Ukraine and in the States. I need Him in my life constantly to give me patience with my kids and others in my life. :) I need Him to give me love for others and for myself at times. I need Him to show me what's the next step in life. I need Him to just be with me, to be my companion, my love, my all. I need God.
