Episode 24 "A Strong Chin"

On this episode I talk about needing to have a string chin which is a boxing term for being able to take a punch because every now and then life is gonna punch you in the face and test your faith sometimes your hit from 3 different sides at once and if you retreat to fear and worry and doubt and lose hope when that happens your situation can easily spin out of control and you can really dig yourself in a hole. Yesterday I talked about how blessed I am and how God continues to show up in my life and I specifically mentioned how my daughter Mali hadn't had a seizure in months after that first scare a few months ago and a couple hours after I went home from recording that podcast Mali had her second seizure and I find myself taking that punch so much better than I did 2 months ago. This time I wasn't nearly as mad at God my faith wasn't really shaken at all, I knew in my heart we are going to be ok and that this situation is in Gods hands. I was grateful to be there when it happened and we gave her the medicine, went to the hospital in the ambulance and she went home several hours later and now she has to take a medication to prevent them from happening in the future but in this circumstance I realized my faith is growing which is something I pray for that maybe I shouldn't pray for but I see how God is working in my life and strengthening my chin and I pray the next time life punches you in the face is doesn't cause you to flee God but to lean into Him and know that He still has you. Knowing God doesn't mean that you won't face challenges in life it means you wont face the alone because He is there with you. I hope you get something out of this tho it's really hard to hear because I stupidly walked to the beach today and the wind makes a lot of this pretty much impossible to hear but hopefully you get something, I'll definitely be smarter next time. I hope you have a great day and as always appreciate the blessings!
