Epiphany at the start of 2013

Well, this is the start of my 2013 blog.
Life was hard in 2012--- we had a roller coaster ride of achievements and many so (oh so) let down moments. But here I am, I think I have become stronger than ever, more resilient against the waves of self-doubt and anxieties.
Honestly we have a lot of things to do, just that, a lot of things going on that it took away our peace. Lots of problems, and I feel like were slowly drowning. I stayed calm, I looked at God---- but at the same time, I wanted to have my feet back in 'reality', I didn't want any members of my family thinking I do not care about what is happening around me.
I do trust in God, however, it's hard to keep my faith, be calm and be expectant of God's grace when everyone is  in panic and chaos. I feel guilty of being calm when everyone else is anxious....what should I do? Am I not panicking because I do believe in God's providence? Or is is that I simply do not care? I am confused----

But in this confusing time--- I opened an email, and God did talk to me.... I was overwhelmed with what I read: “Be still and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10)

It was a message that hit home. God was telling me to immerse myself in His plans and He will take care of the rest--- that, I yet have to see. But I do believe that what God promises, He will fulfill. Thank you Lord, Thank You---- Your words are enough to calm me.

I will update on the mysteries and surprises in my life that God has in store for me---soon it will unravel.

SMILE, LIFE IS FULL OF PLEASANT SURPRISES! 2013, I LOVE YOU!
