I haven't written for a while. It happens, most often, when the rest of life is put in a spiral of chaos.
We've had a few really crazy weeks in a row. From Little Red getting scarlet fever to appointments for Buddy to hyper real nightmares to you name it.
For the most part, we're doing okay. S and I are just drained. It's a down season again, I think. The hope is there that the up will come. There are so many things to look forward to like American Thanksgiving, or friends coming to visit, or even Christmas.
But. What about today?
ugh. Today. The Here. The Now. What about today? How do we get through today? Some days, we knuckle down and just do it. Other days we break a little and spend a hefty amount of time blinking back tears. Other days God gives us visible reminders of his grace in the form of a neighbor bringing us dinner, or a friend getting us a humidifier at cost, or even an email from an old friend.
On the days God doesn't give us visible reminders it's easy to forget His goodness. But, even on those days, His goodness reigns. He still has scooped us out of the miry pit and washed us clean as snow. And that, THAT is enough.
Trying to keep my chin up and knees bent,
XO,
J
Soli Deo Gloria
