Feeling God's Love During Rough Seasons.        Oftentimes it can be tough to feel God's love when you're going through rough seasons believe me I've been/am still there. Sometimes it can feel like God isn't showing us the love we want to feel. God's love can sometimes be tough love like allowing you to go through difficulty. it can be allowing you to make mistakes because he wants to teach you. A lot of times we know God loves us unconditionally but we don't feel his love.

Just in a couple months of being homeless.     For starters let me explain how I felt before I came to see how much God had shown me in two months. I felt angry, I had so much stress my body malfunctioned, I was overwhelmed with fear, I didn't sleep well for months, etc. I was angry at my father because he was the reason behind being homeless, He told our landlord he wasn't going to pay rent so they kicked us out. It was always an overwhelming fear of am I going to ever have to lay my head on a concrete ground. Rest assured I always had a bed to lay on, as we were staying in a hotel with help from extended family.        it took me around 6 months of being in a home to feel like everything was going to be okay. In these 6 months, I learned
