I know we’re technically already into the New Year, but it’s still January, and I’m still in the process of “moving on.” The last year has been one of the bumpiest my family and I have ever experienced. Going from what seemed to be the average complications of life to discovering our daughter had a malignant brain tumor had major impact on all our lives, to say the least.
During a year of surgeries, treatments, and a recovery more fraught with emotional issues than I expected, God turned my thinking—and praying—upside down. Instead of asking him to make things better, I’ve learned to ask that he equip me for whatever’s next. And I can’t help but look back and be amazed at the ground covered and appreciate the progress made, yet I have no desire to go through it again.
But I know I will.

Poignant commentary on "in this world you will have trouble."
Love you, girl.

The thing about Christianity is this: as long as we're in our Earthy bodies, we're still on the journey, still learning. The Christian who thinks he or she as "arrived" is usually hit with a rude awakening.
