Breathing a Little Easier

There's a kind of quiet that comes over a person when solutions begin to arise. We did everything we could for the last several years in the hopes that something, anything would change and we found ourselves hopelessly overwhelmed, sad, and frustrated. 

Momentary Pause
Today we spoke with someone about one of my children's ongoing issues. I won't say which but most of you probably already know. The meeting today could not have come at a better time because yesterday took a frightening turn.

I won't question God about why things have turned out the way they have. I will give thanks for the opportunities that present themselves to build us into better people. I will ask for the grace to learn and the patience to handle what will be coming our way. I will ask for the wisdom to make the right decisions when it comes to this child's care plan and needs. And I will praise God for this child's beautiful mind and heart. 

 It might get worse before it gets better. Or it could smoothly transition into better.

Pray for us.
