But let's just forget that I haven't posted in months. I'm here, at least right now.
This phrase is being sung through my headphones even as I type
"As sure as the sun will rise and chase away the night, His mercy will not end..." - Ellie Holcomb
Amen and amen.
His mercy will not end, and His love will never fade.
Ah! I soak in His promises every morning. It's been a tough start to this year, nothing really big, just issues of the heart. A constant battle to declare truth when I want to believe the lie.
The lie that...
God doesn't care
I know my life better then my creator
God enjoys crushing my dreams
He just doesn't understand
If He loved me He wouldn't ask this of me
Sometimes I wonder if I ever learn - Do you sometimes think that God is teaching you the very same lesson again. and again. and again. Except I think He goes a little deeper each time.
God is so good, and patient. I'm so grateful for this season of struggle and intentional learning, prayer and seeking my Father. He is faithful to draw near as I press in to know Him more.
And not to switch the subject, but how about the pictures?
Bethany snapped a couple over Christmas (it snowed Christmas Eve in Nebraska!! All my PA friends were beside themselves with jealousy - it was 70 degrees in Lancaster on Christmas Day!)
Enjoy. And Happy New Year.
Yes, it's been quiet, but I realize life sometimes overwhelms even the smallest of things....like updating a blog. (Don't remind me please. Our blog has been poorly neglected)
