A Gentle Reminder.....

There are some days you just need extra encouragement and a reminder of whom you belong to... Who's name you bear.  This afternoon was one of those times for me... for us.  Driving to the grocery store and pondering something we've been facing for several years; my heart hurting for my husband and daughters over broken promises and broken relationships that we didn't break and want so badly to see restoration with those involved.  Searching for an answer and a solution, not willing to give up our dream, trying to figure out "why" yet knowing there is no way to fix it even if we knew the "why", thankful for the knowledge that regardless of everything we are a strong family of 6 that loves each other and pulls together to face everything thrown at us, even when it's meant to destroy us.... AND THEN, God stepped in and gave me, once again, my fight song. The song He ALWAYS sends me when I'm facing my own personal giants and my steps begin to feel like they falter.  The song that reminds me I'm not alone.  I'm loved and protected by an amazing Heavenly Father, who "knows the plans He has for me" and I can rest assured that He will never fail us.  A gentle yet powerful reminder
