Update

I'm sorry it has been so long since I have posted. I suppose a big post hasn't come in about 2 or 3 weeks that is because so much has happened in 2 or 3 weeks! As always, this is a summer of learning for me. One of the biggest life lessons I am walking through is remembering God's unconditional love and trusting His timing. There are many things that I simply don't understand but it's ok. I will forever praise the Lord! It is interesting to me as I read more and more scriptures that declare that walking with the Lord includes constant praise and thanksgiving. I never really knew what that looked like but am perhaps discovering it now. God is good, all the time. All the time God is good. Our timing is far different from His and even though 3 weeks or perhaps 2 or 3 months feels like a lifetime, if we simply strive to be patient and rest and trust, I'm sure we'd save ourselves a lot of stress and heartache. Though I have a long way to go to master this, when it happens....when God shows up and shows up big time, like He promises, I am constantly humbled and reminded that He provides. Oh me of little faith. Hallelujah God is good!

Praise the Lord, my soul;
    all my inmost being, praise his holy name.
Praise the Lord, my soul,
    and forget not all his benefits— 
 who forgives all your sins
    and heals all your diseases, 
 who redeems your life from the pit
    and crowns you with love and compassion,  
 who satisfies your desires with good things
    so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. 
         -Psalm 103:1-5
