peace

"God is a healer" one of my best friends, Jessi, just reminded me.

In the bad times. The hard times. The confusing times.

Jesus heals.

In the good times. In the sweet moments of life.

Jesus heals.

You see, He's been healing my wounds. He's been mending the broken parts of my soul. He's shown me the depth of his character. The way he chases me and envelops me in his love. He's rained down on my heart and stripped the hurts from my soul. Oh, there will be more hurts to come. But i'm a witness to his faithfulness. He brings us through. Every time. He brings us through.

It's funny. When you are in the midst of the storm, you can't imagine life without the storm--life on the other side. Life on the other side of the pain. This has without a doubt been one of THE most challenging years of my life so far. It's been painful. You know..because you have walked it with me. Through the heartache. Through the unknown. But let me be a testiment to the strength the Lord has to turn the sorrow into dancing...

He's taken me through a painful season into one of rejoicing. Relief from the pain of a broken relationship. Relief from not knowing where i would live or what i would be doing. He's given me joy. He's given me an amazing job that i consider to be a miracle.

peace in the midst of the storm. peace in the midst of rejoicing. He desires to give us His peace.

Jesus heals.

And i love my job. :)
