Two mornings of hope in the midst of the recent floods here. Our little home is built on rock and nestled in the foothills of the mountains. What a safe haven.....
But one of the many lessons that I have learned in the past few years....No earthly haven is really "safe". My only true hope is in Your Person, Lord.
My heart is full of gratitude this morning for so many things. Your provision and grace, Lord. Your faithfulness. Your unconditional love. Life. A beautiful, healthy and brilliant grandson. Three godly and gorgeous daughters and two wonderful sons-in-love (as my Mom would have said). My home. A wonderful church. My job with Big Brothers/Big Sisters....and countless daily blessings.
I sometimes am tempted to think about "what might have been", but, then, I realize anew that nothing ever happens to Your child without sifting through Your hands. May I truly focus on You and have the faith to accept, with gratitude, everything that You funnel my way....through Your loving hands.
