August 10, 2019 - The Empty Spaces


“The empty spaces between where we are and what’s next often terrify us, yet every single letting go requires moments of uncertainty where we seem suspended between what was and what isn’t yet. During these times we don’t feel like we’re holding on to anything solid at all... - Laura Story 
We’re home - and we had so much fun on our trip. Our anniversary dinner was at the perfect place, a restaurant called The Cellar in Newnan, and it couldn’t have been any better! Thank you for all your Anniversary well-wishes! 
I am continuing to read the book by Laura Story, and God is using it to work in my spirit! Being in Georgia again, one year after our first visit, brought back so many emotions and memories. On one hand, I feel like we are so much stronger than we were last year; our faith has grown immensely during this journey. On the other hand, sometimes it feels like we live month to month, and I’ve really not adjusted to not knowing what’s next! But in fact - we are ALL face unknowns - we just forget that and think we’ve got it all under control! 💕
This is what I do know. God’s Word provides guidance and comfort. And God has blessed with family and friends who help us on this walk - with laughter, tears, company, a shoulder to lean on, or fun diversions to help us enjoy each day. God is with us and He sees what’s ahead, whether we can see the next step or not. There’s comfort in that!
“I look up to the mountains— does my help come from there? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth!” Psalms‬ ‭121:1-2‬ ‭NLT‬‬
