Still Standing

Even though I had a tough childhood with disagreeing parents, I can still dream of a loving & happy marriage.
Even though I wasn't the most popular in school, I can still accept people's friendship.
Even though I graduated with a 2:2, I've had brilliant jobs.
Even though I suffered from asthma, I can run/walk 5K in less than 40 minutes.
Even though I was involved in a car accident and the car somersaulted with 3 kegs of petrol in the trunk, I survived without a scratch.
Even though I went to bed hungry some nights, I can now afford to dine out.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow death, I shall fear no evil!

I guess my Father says what He means and means what He says:
For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV)
