Merry Christmastide

Merry Christmastide! Wanted to share the miracle chemo has reduced mama's cancer by 50%. All praise to God. Trusting Him for many more miracles now, and in the days to come.

2021 year brought more suffering, uncertainty, grief and surrender than we could ever have imagined. We had no way of knowing the journey our family would take - which was God's mercy. Knowing the whole story would have been too much.

I'm not one for resolutions - and honestly - this year taught me God's plans and ways WILL happen, so - for me - it's better to surrender and trust.

In 2022 may our family remember God's faithfulness, His love and mercy, and the truth we are hidden in the shadow of His wings. We receive and fully accept the story He is writing and pray my only response will be, "I am the servant of the Lord; may it be done to me according to your word."

my New Year prayer

from Every Moment Holy

You came to us, O Lord, as a lantern in our darkness.

Now illumine our way.

You came to us as a song in the midst of our sorrow.

Now kindle our hope.

You came to us as a balm on the bed of our sufferings.

Now be our healing.

You came to us as a shelter amidst the violence of storms.

Now grant us peace.

You came to us as a child in the midnight of our despair.

Now be our God.
