The night

The night is cold, the breeze slight. I am sitting in my room with the warmth of the heater around me. I am listening to the children laugh, as they watch a funny cartoon, and hear the baby's quiet breathing, asleep, snuggled in her crib. My heart is joyful, my spirit content. My faith strong, my hopes high. My children safe, my family held up in prayer. I am a blessed daughter of God, there is nothing more I could ask for.

5 months

In 50 minutes, it will be 5 months to the day I left my marriage. I thought the divorce would be final, and the drama lessened. I was wrong. But, God continues to bless me, hold me up and provide for all my needs. I will have faith, and continue to trust him in all things. I will look to him when I need strength, hope and encouragement. His word, is the answer to all things. Regardless of my failures, wrongs and sins, God loves me, loves my children and forgives.
