Life is Difficult

Oh my, life is certainly difficult.  I hate to complain, because God has been SO good to me in every way.  I'm recovering from my surgery and getting stronger each day, my family has been wonderful, my life is filled with blessings, and I have a happy life.  But it sure is difficult when Satan digs his way in there and tries to get us to doubt God's love and plan for us.  I was coming down the stairs, which is tricky for me anyway because of my foot, and I slipped and fell.  I hurt my knee pretty badly.  I immediately called out to God for help.  I begged for His healing, His hand of comfort, and His love.  He heard me and gave me the ability to walk downstairs to the couch.  I'm laying here with ice on my knee, but I'm in a decent amount of pain.  I am just praying that there is no significant damage.  I KNOW that God is in control.  Life is difficult, and I could never do it with out Him.

I made this Father's Day card for my Dad.  He is a pilot, retired from the Air Force, so I thought it was fitting for him.  I hope he likes it.

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:
