Yesterday as I wrote, my heart was heavy. Thank you for your prayers. And you know what, He showed up. Sometimes we forget to look for Him in the little things, but He reminded me yesterday that He is still there. Even when we have a heavy heart.
I am fortunate to work with children. I get to see Him everyday through them. Yesterday in the midst of heaviness, a child drew me a picture. He said that my class was better than everything. (Hey, I know you are laughing and saying yeh, right) But in that moment, God told me I was still loved. And still His. See, I know that when I am down, when I am in a dry spot-He sends me reminders. And He will you too! We have to be willing to look for them. So do that today for me, look for the little reminders of Him. The flower where there shouldn't be one, a friend's laughter, a child's picture........and like I told a friend earlier today-I want a report! And don't forget to Praise Him for His love, for showing up!
Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. Psalm 143:8

Melissa,
So glad to hear the HOPE in your voice today! And, yes, you are loved! We all love you and so does God! When I was feeling out of sorts the other day, I looked in Maddie's agenda and under the caption "My Hero" she had drawn a picture and written my mom and my dad. Nothing like the eyes and love of a child to lift your spirits! Keep your chin up! Still praying for God to bring you through!
GIANT HUGS AND LOVE,
Kimberly
