God Is Great!

It has been a long hard road. My Mom has a little saying; "only he carrying the pack, knows the weight thereof."
And what a weight it has been at times.
My beloved has been gone all of eleven months now, almost hard to believe. This being his third tour we are no strangers to separation. But I have to admit that this has been the longest and the hardest by far.
Life has not been without its share of challenges yet I am amazed (even though our great Lord says we shouldn't be) by God's comfort and grace though it all.
The Lord has blessed me with two wonderful boys. They have been my strength and comfort through it all while living it. God sustaines us, but they have been my ministering comfort.
They miss their father, sure; but they have such a resolve about his purpose for this family and what he is doing out there.
Time and time again I have cried unto the Lord and He has heard my plea. He is my one constant in this ever changing emotional roller coaster of a ride.

Truly, "Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest" has been my comforting verse in this journey.

Is it over? not just yet. Much longer? not really given what we have already "endured." How will we manage? "Casting all your cares upon him for he careth for you." And being able to do ALL things through Christ, which strengthen me.

Glory, I'm Saved!
