dear reader…
you wrote in after I spilled words yesterday. words of life I called it and rehearsed them all day long.
I’m nervous…leaf-shaking, heart-trembling kind about the gains in my life, tremendous opportunities. how He’s moving and leading and am I really prepared?
but you? sweet sister…you wrote to me of the loss in your life.
of how the one you called husband has breathed his last, how you’re afraid at times. I cannot imagine.
I am struck by your honesty and vulnerability. thank you for sharing…you are remembered in my heart.
I am moved by this — how His word reached deep into places of our lives for completely different circumstances. The same word ministering to us both.
Well, that makes sense right? He’s the same God. And this is what I love today sister, what absolutely steadies me…
He knows us full well. He knows us, you and I.
He is aware of of every time we hesitate, we tremble, we fear. He sees and hears our cries, mine with celebration and yours with grief and He speaks a better word. Or two or more…
He calms our spirits and we settle and rest in Him. I love that.
Sweet sister, today on this first Valentine’s without his hand in yours, I think of you and pray for the incredible future we both believe for. The one God promises will be ours.
We run to Him yes? We run to Him…
A blessed and gracious day to you.
