It takes rain and clouds to make a rainbow shine across the sky. Admist the storms of life, the LORD always flashes that rainbow to remind us of His unending, love, grace, and comfort. The storms and pain are still there but contrast sharply to the vibrant colors the LORD gives us. And somehow we know that everything is okay. The sun will shine again. Yet we wouldn't appreciate the beauty of a rainbow without the dark and scary storm clouds. In the moments of storms is when I learn how I truly am blessed.
I'm blessed by a beautiful beautiful son. He is healthy and he is happy. Maxwell brings such intense joy, purpose, belonging, and love to my life. I am blessed.
I'm blessed by a loving husband that desires to honor, respect, and love me. Paul will go to no ends to make sure I'm happy and loved. His love IS unconditional. I am blessed.
I'm blessed by loving families - both Paul's and mine. They both love the LORD and love us. They pray and support us in all situations. I am blessed.
I'm blessed by a close-knit church family that takes me as a child of their own. Jesus is the head of the church (family) and we are united as brothers and sisters in Christ. I am blessed.
The Lord has richly blessed me.
"Moreover, your little ones who you said would become a prey, and your sons, woho this day have no knowledge of good or evil, shall enter there, and I will give it to them and they shall possess it." (Deuteronomy 1:39)
"Before I was born the LORD called me; from my birth he has made mention of my name...and now the LORD says--he who formed me in the womb to be his servant..." (Isaiah 49:1,5)
"The word of the LORD came to me saying, 'Before I formed you int eh womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations'" (Jeremiah 1:4 - 5).
"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that fully well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." (Pslam 139:13-16)
