Amidst the busy*ness, I recognize a need to just settle in, get cozy, be still, and gain focus. I had a few moments today where I could stand back and thank God for His peace in our lives.
I look around at so many people I interact with daily and see brokenness. Broken relationships, broken marriages, broken homes, broken pocket books, broken bodies, broken policy, broken politicians, broken economy...So much Brokenness. It is painful to watch friends endure the brokenness in their lives. At times I even struggle with trying to really relate with the hardships. I don't want to personally endure the same things, and I haven't at this point in my life (thank the Good Lord). Still, I know that this life isn't supposed to be free of difficulties, and I figure my time is coming...
I count my blessings, and thank the Lord that He has protected me from the brokenness... I pray he does the same for my children. I pray they won't personally experience brokenness. I hope their lives are full of joy, innocence, and Godliness!
