Life can be unfair!

I'm having one of those really rough weeks, I put in my two week notice at my job and also found out my daughter's father would like to take her from the suburbs and move her to the city. At work this morning, I've been holding back the tears, swallowing the big ball in my throat so I can put on a fake smile. Sometimes being an adult is REALLY hard! I'm looking up to the Lord, and I realized something...not everything goes according to our plan! Sometimes we are given really REALLY hard choices to make! What we don't realize is that when we see the just the tree line, God sees the entire forest. He knows his plan for us, Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you." declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a FUTURE." Now this text was actually directed towards the disciples God chose that turned their backs on him in order to worship idols. But you see, even when we turn our backs on him, even when we make bad choices, Our FATHER in heaven still cares. He still wants the best for us, he still guides us (sometimes on a different path than originally planned). So although my heart is burdened and heavy right now, I have to trust him. I know he has a wonderful plan.
