Dusty, this really hit home with me. I can’t thank you enough for sharing your personal story. Not only does it make me appreciate the agape love from up that I experience daily, it makes me appreciate the agape love towards EVERYONE. It doesn’t matter who you are, or who your mama and daddy are. God loves us and shows us this daily. So, whenever I’m going through a hard time, I make an effort to hear the positive stories of others. Good things are happening. And troubles can only lead to perseverance-charater-love-hope…..
Anyways, as ya know, I went through a similar situation after Kole was born. Still healing. This makes me want to share my own testimony. I’ll send it once I correct the wording.
I may be signing for my first house tomorrow. Kole & I will then move from my parent’s lakehouse to Athens for the first time. I couldn’t be more excited. Tonight feels like Christmas Eve did as a child.
The living room has two built in bookshelves on each side of the fireplace. Would you be cool with me printing this short blog of yours and framing on one side then printing my own testimony and framing for the other side?
I’ll email the other later. And again, thank you so much for being willing to put your personal stuff out.

P.S. Currently reading “Don’t Waste Your Sorrows”

I know how you felt. When my husband walked out after 26 years of marriage, I still had a house but felt like I had no protection, security, provider, and was all alone. In the last 9 months, God has shown me that He alone is my provider, security, protection, and the only one that is there 24/7 and loves me even more than my earthly Daddy and Mamma(and they love me bunches). I like you have learned to put the entire situation in the “God Box” and let him handle everything since He has way more experience and can see the future. I tried to fix everything and did so with a pure heart but everything I tried to fix just got more mixed up. When I put it all in His “box” and stopped trying to help, I have watched things happen that HAS to be God. He is so much more experienced with all of Life’s problems than we are and it does give you that peace that you can never explain!

You have a wonderful Daddy….I’m thankful that I do, too. Our earthly Daddies have given us a glimpse of the how much our Heavenly Father loves us….thanks for the reminder.

Absolutely. It is astounding to me the love God, our Father, has for us. When I look at what I do for my children because I love them I just can’t imagine HIM loving them (or me) so much more, and deeper. It is amazing love.
