More Heavy

As I've mentioned before, many of the people I love are dealing with really heavy stuff right now.

And somehow, the heavy stuff keeps piling on.

I don't know if it's just a sign of getting older or what, but life definitely seems to throw more curveballs the longer I'm alive.

And today, after another emotional roller coaster, there are only a couple of things I can say:

...God is good. Bottom line. Today's outcome was a good one...but even if it wasn't, He is still good. And I am confident that I would still be able to say that in this moment, no matter what took place today.

...I am so thankful for my family and my friends. We pick each other up when we're down, and we are there. The encouraging texts, emails, visits and prayers that took place in multiple situations today just prove to me how much God loves us. He blesses us with these wonderful people here on earth to help us, to hold our hands, and to speak the words that we are sometimes unable to speak ourselves. I don't know what I would do without these amazing pillars in my life.


I don't know what life will bring tomorrow or next week or even next year. But today? God reminded me of some important truths...especially how important it is to trust Him. He's got it all. Our worrying doesn't solve anything. And tonight? I'm resting in that.
