Mountains and Valleys

There are times in life when you feel on top of the world. A "mountain-top experience", people might say. Life is going great, no worries. I have that feeling a lot and I love it. And then there are times when life gets hard. You go through difficult times. It's more of a "valley" experience. I praise the Lord that the good times WAY outnumber the hard. But right now I am feeling like I'm in a valley.

I could sugar-coat this blog and say that everything is going great...but that's not honest. I always want people to be real with me, so I am choosing to be real with you guys. I am struggling. I have fears and doubts and sometimes I really feel Satan is trying to attack me in my new job.

It is going to get better, this I know. My God is a good God. Every day I focus on a new attribute of God from a list my mentor gave me. It goes alphabetically starting with God is "Able" and will end with God is "Zealous". I'm on the "F"s so far. Today's characteristic of God? "FAITHFUL". And He is. He will see me through this. Walk by faith, Sarah, not by sight. These feelings are only temporary, even though they seem to overpower me sometimes.

If you know me, please pray for me. I will keep you guys updated. I am looking forward to climbing up that mountain once more...
