I know I need to lift my eyes up
but I'm too weak
Life just won't let up
and I know that you can give me rest
so I cry out with all that I have left
{WORN}
But in the past few months we've felt the heavy sadness finally starting to lift from our hearts. Through the love and support of so many people, we have started to focus our eyes back on Christ and away from our circumstances. Some things have changed, but many things have not. The next year is again going to be hard, but for the first time in 15 months, our hearts are turned back to seeking God's will for our lives and our family. For that, and many other things, I am so thankful.
Thankful that God will never leave me or forsake me
Thankful that despite my circumstances, His promises are true
Thankful that He's given me a wonderfully flawed partner to do life with
Thankful for daughters that constantly challenge me to dig deeper, one intellectually, one emotionally
Thankful for a son who gives me a reason to smile every day
Thankful for a city with amazing medical care options
Thankful for a family that knows when to love on me and when to give me space
Thankful that when I could barely keep my head above water, He did.
His grace abounds in deepest waters
