My posts over the past year have been mostly about Bryson’s transition to Arizona. The process has felt all-consuming at times. I have been home for three months now and feel adjusted back to life here… I think. I have no updates on Bryson’s situation, but life has continued to move ahead.
Last week Stevan came home after a year serving with YWAM Louisville. His outreach locations were in Columbia and Brazil.
Kaden left on Friday for his last first day of college! He will be completing his Business Management degree at IWU next spring.
We found a new home for Rizzo. Rizzo has been going to a dog sitter whenever we traveled the last few years. This family has fallen in love with Rizzo and is excited to welcome him into their family. We are sad but excited that he will be going to a family who already loves him!
Last Friday was the 20th anniversary of Brad’s ditch cave-in accident. As I sat talking to Kaden about it, I could visualize holding him on the rocking chair when I got the call no wife wants to receive, Kaden was 4 months old. Reflecting on the memories of the following months after the accident, I am grateful that he is with me today and we can celebrate his healing and all the good memories we have made over the past 20 years.
As days, months, years move on…… it’s easy to get stuck in the hard places, in the places that push us out of our comfort zone and bring us to our knees.
I find myself stuck often, I find myself consumed by anxiety, I find myself doubting.
But I have grown, I have learned, I have prayed!
I believe that in those hard places – God is faithful, God is present, God is all knowing, GOD IS GOOD – all the time – and all the time GOD IS GOOD!
God is good! Great is His faithfulness!
