What's Up, Doc?

Well, its been a while.

First of all, I want to start out by giving a little advice...

If any of you have lots of allergies, don't eat any of the food you're allergic to, and still get sick... you may want to look into gallbladder problems... In the past month, I've found out that my gallbladder doesn't really work.. Well - Isn't that just perfect? So... surgery's Tuesday... And I'm still not quite sure how I feel about it yet.

I know God's in control of every situation of my life. Proverbs 19:21

I know everything will work out for good for those who love Him, and I know I love Him. Romans 8:28

And I know that God's plans for me are to prosper me, never to harm me. Jeremiah 29:11

So why is it so hard for me to have peace with this trial that God has allowed into my life?

Phil 4:6-8
Be anxious in nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

It's hard for me, because I'm still trying to figure out God and His plans. I will never understand God, and I will never understand why He does what He does. The only thing that can calm me now is the peace of God, and that only comes "by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving [letting my] requests be made known to God."
