Hold on. . .God will see you through



As I drove home early yesterday morning (4:30am) from taking my husband to work, a rush of difficult memories came over me. While simply focusing on getting back home and into bed, I was being summoned back to places I hadn't thought about in awhile.

Feelings of sadness were felt as scenes were quickly played out for me in order. I remembered how hard it was, how I didn't know at the time how I would make it through, how it felt like more than I could bear.

Feelings of relief were felt as I fast forwarded to now. I recalled how God sustained me, how His strength filled me, and how He has never abandoned me.

It's in our memories that God can move, whether He's healing the pain of those memories, or reminding us of how powerfully He has been with us every step of the way.

God wanted me to remember, and He wants you to know...HE'S WITH YOU.

While many are busy celebrating, I know many are hurting very deeply.

Hold on. . . God will see you through; soon this will be one of those memories.
