Two Days After Christmas
The God who spoke the universe into being also became a human being. What a miracle! What love!

I don't know where you are today. Perhaps in deep sorrow. Estranged from the ones you love. Bankrupt. Ill. I hope you take the time to if not sing the words, read them. It's worth the effort.
Because of those losses, I'm the stronger because I've had to depend on God to help me through those losses. And even better, brought me out to the other side of grief.
As this Friday that brings Thanksgiving week upon us, enjoy the simple rest and beauty in the day.
Before the beginning of time, God knew you. Knew what your circumstances would be. You--and I--are the work of his hands. He knows. He cares.
You might not have experienced loss as a widow, but I'll bet you've experienced other kinds of loss. It could be death. Health. A scary diagnosis....you can probably relate to at least one item on the list. And when you're experiencing it, it feels big. Really big. And when you're in one of those places, you might not believe it, but I can tell you, God is there. He really is. All of the time.
Our life is like the morning fog.......
I see the sun beginning to pink the sky. I'm going to enjoy it--and thank God for life itself.
What are you waiting for? Release from pain or illness? Release from the grief that is tearing you up inside and out? We're all there at times--being made to lie down and wait.
I'm not sure why God created seasons, but I'm sure glad He did.
