And so it goes...

Another chapter in my life is now done, and it's time to move on. Lately, there have been many late night conversations, many prayers, many tears; but through the storm, I still see God's hand, leading me and directing me to something different, new doors, new opportunities. Over the last few years, I've learned so much about grace, gifts, trust, perseverance, disappointment, brokenheartedness...and the ever-increasing love I have for my beautiful daughters, amazing husband and wonderful Savior! God has shown me dazzling streams of light peeking out of storm clouds and moments of great stillness in the midst of a windstorm; there is always peace in His hand, regardless of the circumstances in which I find myself. And so, as I step forward into the next chapter, I hold tightly to the love I have shared with those with whom I walked yesterday, and take what I've learned and share it with those with whom I'll walk tomorrow. It is my prayer that my heart be ever shaped and molded by the grace of God, that I might walk worthy of Him who gave His very life as ransom for me.
