The past two weeks I have been experiencing a whirlwind of emotions. Through my joys, fears, worry, excitement, and anxiety You have been there. I have been praying, but not really listening. Because if I was truly listening I would know that,
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;
His mercies never come to an end;
They are new every morning;
Great is your faithfulness.
Through these past few weeks, I have laughed and cried. These past few years I have let my circumstances stunt me and eat away my contentment. Thankfully I serve a forgiving and gracious God. He offers me acceptance way beyond the state of my four walls. And He promised to abide with and in me. If I can only take my eye off myself for a moment to catch a glimpse of the glorious invitation to make my home in Him. Everything begins and ends in His hands. His good hands that can be trusted to hold me as I mourn as well as when I rejoice.
Lord, please keep working on me. I know I am a work in progress, but thankfully through these growing pains. I am growing.
Amen.
