He Will Not Fail You


As 2012 gets on its way I am forced to once again realize and be in awe of God's faithfulness.

2011 was an amazing year, but it definitely had it's moments. Hospital visits, kidney infections, sickness amongst family and friends. Of course, I made it through all of these trials, but only because of God's hand.

I suppose the most trying of all the events in 2011 was when my Dad's cataract surgery somehow went wrong and he lost his vision in the affected eye. Seven long weeks went by with us not knowing what would happen, or if he would be able to get his vision back without having surgery that he was told might not even work. I had never prayed so hard for anything in my life as I did for God to heal him.
And it was a Saturday morning, and I was at Truett's waiting tables when I got the call from Mom that he woke up and could see again.

It was God who gave me the strength to not give up all the nights I was up until 2am working on financial statements and marketing plans for my summer class that I swore was going to kill me. And He also provided me with the financial means during the months I wasn't sure I was going to have enough to make ends meet.

So I have faith that He will also be with me throughout 2012, holding me up on the days I have trouble. He has already provided me with some awesome opportunities that came at just the right time.

It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; He will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed. (Deuteronomy 31:8)
