I haven’t felt fantastic the last few weeks, so last night I asked the Lord to give me all that He could to get me through the next few days. They are so very important and I knew without Him pouring an extra measure of physical and emotional strength, I wouldn’t be able to do what needs to be done. It’s hard to be in Little Rock because memories are everywhere. Some good, some bad. Just a routine trip I can handle, but over the next few days, I will be immersed not only in my loss, but the loss of others. I will embrace family members - comfort them, cry with them, and encourage them. Thankfully, they will do the same for me. We have a purpose. All of us. All He needs is what may be a feeble “Yes, Lord”, and He will give us all that we need to see it through. I woke up this morning feeling that answered prayer, and tonight, with no other cloud in the sky, I saw this. Just a reminder that He’s listening and He’s faithful! “See, I am sending an angel ahead of you to guard you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared.” -Exodus 23:20
