When I wrote this post two years ago, my family was going through a really difficult time. I pray these raw and honest words help you while you wait.

Hope is a dangerous thing…hope deferred can be disastrous…in the waiting, I have a choice…to trust God’s promises, His goodness, and His faithfulness…or, I can believe what I see, feel, and experience.

This is so hard…#tbh Everything in me screams, this is not right! Where are you God? Don’t you see me and my family? How much we’ve gone through? How much we’ve done in Your name?

I’d love to wrap up this post with a nice neat happy ending…but I cant. I sit in the waiting. ..choosing to slay the thoughts that would love to contradict God’s word, choosing to walk with my hurt heart open to the Holy Spirit, and turn my eyes to Him who is faithful…He is all my hope and stay.
