Recently my jaw has begun hurting. Not just an average little pain here and there, but some bad pains. But something I realized during this experience is that pain or no pain I am going to praise God. Whether it hurts to open my mouth or not I am going to praise God and sing Him praises with all that I have. Because the thing is: God is jaw dropping. The little (or big) things He does for us is amazing. I mean, have you ever seen the sunsets? My family and I were coming out of the movie theater and we saw the most amazing sunset. It had purple and pinks in it and it was just breathtaking. God could of just said to have it one color, or even no color at all. But instead He created a beautiful display of colors everyday. And I am so blessed to have a Spiritual family around me to guide me into life changing decisions and helping me when I need it. I even feel blessed to be in trials and tribulations because it is more a reason to trust God, knowing that He will help me through this and continue to praise Him.
With all these reasons why God is jaw-dropping, why waste my time complaining about my jaw when I could praise Him? =)

I'm sorry your jaw has been bothering you, Julia! You made some very good points in this post, though! It's important to realize that God is always working even in the midst of trials... and pain. :)
And I'm glad you wrote this because I just had a retainer/appliance put in my mouth along with braces and rubber bands. =) (I'm 17 and I'm finally getting all my dental work done!) Needless to say, I've been in quite a bit of pain for the past couple of days, so I can somewhat relate to this post! ;D Thanks for the reminder that we need to praise His name no matter what. :)
Blessings!
