This or That

This or that - I am thankful for this but I’m still looking forward to that which lay ahead.  This life truly has been good to me but that which God offer me now and to come is even more than this that I already have.  Only through faith can I believe for that when this is all that I have ever known.  That unknown existence is all that I can focus on to keep me from focusing on this known existence that seems will be all that I know.  But this faith that I have keeps that from happening.  There is a thing that fights me but this one thing that I know is that God is ever-faithful and that which seeks to keep me from being victorious has already been defeated.  So I thank God for this hope that I have even in the midst of all this that is going on inside of me.  For I know that the battle is not mine but the Lord and this is the reason why I can trust him – because of that very truth – and that is all that I know.  Whether I am feeling this way or that-a-way – either way I know that all things will work out for my good and to his Glory.
