Motivation

It has been really quiet, here, on the blog. After the world's worst New Year, I haven't trusted myself to write or even look through pictures because the strangest things will just make me break down.

It is snowing pretty hard in Huntsville right now and that blanket of white on everything just reminds me of God's promises….though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow…and I think the same would go for creation and pain; He is making everything sad come untrue.

How can I dwell in sadness when I can see God's grace in…

 …tiny footprints in the snow…

 …a healthy…

 …happy…

 …rambunctious…

 …sweet, little, boy…

…who doesn't have time to have a posed picture taken.

 Or to see the many blessings in where He has placed me….

 …in my immediate family…

…and the hilarious bunch I gained through marriage…

 …in the blessing of being Adam's wife…

…and doing life by his side while chasing after Silas.

Nothing in this world can change my heartbreak over Baldy, but I know that the Lord is good..and He loves me…and He sees my pain…and He is in the process of making everything new again. That is where I am looking for my motivation to get back to doing the things I love, one of which is sharing our life on this blog, all the happy and all the sad, because one day I'll be able to share this with Silas and our other children and rejoice in all that the Lord has accomplished for us.

Look, I am about to do something new; even now it is coming. 
Do you not see it? 
Indeed, I will make a way in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.
Isaiah 43:19
