Today, I am so thankful to the Lord for answering prayers. And more, for even hearing my prayers.
I've been praying about a certain matter since October. I'd waver back and forth between what I wanted and what I thought God wanted. My old companion Indecision joined me for the battle.
Then my grandpa was hospitalized, and I made an unexpected trip to see him.
The realization that I have limited time with my littlest ones before they start school constantly nagged at me in the back of my head.
And family time is being challenged in my home. Quiet, renewing family time. The ADHD-type of family time is becoming too common. Run here, run there. Quick questions here, short answers there. Meals on the run. Memorizing Awanas verses on the go.
Everything became clear, and I had a peace about the direction the Lord wants me to take. And even though there is a big part of me that does not want the path that He wants, I'm grateful for His leading.
And for his listening to my petitions.
"Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need."
Hebrews 4:16

Wow. That is awesome. God is faithful, isn't he? I had a similar kind of prayer answered this week and it was truly God.
Praise God for answered prayer, bless you dear.

You know - looking back raising our son, I think we sometimes 'ran' through life without taking a breath. Sometimes we need to step, take a breath and just have have FUN :)
I am glad that the Lord has given you peace about things in your life.
Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this past week.
Blessings to you and yours.
