On Good Days and Bad<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/em>“O God, You are my God, earnestly I seek You; my soul thirsts for You, my body longs for You, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. I have seen You in the sanctuary and beheld Your power and Your glory.\u00a0Because Your love is better than life, my lips will glorify You. I will praise You as long as I live, and in Your name I will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.”<\/em>\u00a0Psalm 63:1-5<\/p>\n

I had a sweet, gentle day on the two-year anniversary of Floyd’s passing. The missing him certainly doesn’t go away, but the pain of grief is so much less.\u00a0It was really helpful to see that. Truly God brings healing and fresh grace to our wounded hearts.<\/p>\n

I’ve been thinking recently how sometimes it’s easier to trust God for the big things rather than the little things. I’m not sure why that is. Maybe it’s because the big things are so much more noticeable.\u00a0The little things can sneak in without our being aware of them.<\/p>\n

Recently I’ve been facing both big and little things. It caught me off guard, but, when I noticed it, I immediately heard the Lord speaking sweetly to my heart that He could handle both at the same time.\u00a0He is so awesome, capable, and faithful. And He wants us to bring everything to Him\u2014big things, and even tiny, almost unnoticeable, things. I’ve been doing that, and have been receiving His grace for both.<\/p>\n

I’ve also had some pretty rough days physically. I’d really appreciate your prayers. I need God’s healing touch in a fresh way.<\/p>\n

On good days and on hard days\u2014I lift my voice and hands in praise to our wonderful God!!<\/p>\n

Lord, we continue to pray for Sally\u2019s complete healing. Help us remember in our own lives that only You can satisfy our thirst for You, even when we are having the worst kind of day, or the best kind of day. Amen.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>
