Wednesday’s Word
I sat there sipping
my morning coffee, wondering how I’d make it thru the day. Life had been coming
at me hard, on every side, from every angle. In addition to one of my most
favorite human beings – my self-adopted mom – being put on hospice care, we had
to tell our little 8-year-old grandson that his mommy was no longer with us,
and we needed to be as close to the truth as we could without giving him all
the details.
Thanks for
joining me today for Wednesday’s Word as I share from my heart directly to
yours!
Have you
ever gotten something just in the nick of time? Maybe it was something
monetarily or emotionally, or physically, whatever it was, do you remember
exhaling a sigh of relief? Or what about receiving something you had no idea
you needed as desperately as you did? That’s where I was this particular
morning, just a few mornings ago. I was so sad, heavy-hearted, wanting to
protect our little grandson from this loss that would surely affect him, his
future.
I looked
down at my coffee cup, one I have drank from hundreds of times and it was like
seeing it for the very first time. Only instead of exhaling a sigh of relief, I
inhaled…and held my breath, startled by the obvious voice of Him who pursues us
relentlessly and loves us lavishly, going through great lengths to continuously
express it. And then I smiled, encouraged by His command, His reminder that He
had already gone ahead of me; everything would eventually be all right.
Words can’t
express how encouraged I felt, so allow me to share my coffee cup with you that
you too would be encouraged…no matter what you’re going through.
I love how
He speaks to me; how He is so able to get my attention; He gets me!
Love,
Kim-Evinda
