I am in awe of the power, and of the love of the Lord! His grace never ceases to take my very breath away.
Last night I got a phone call from my doctor. Finally. And this is what I hear: "Whatever was there before is gone now. Your last test came out completely normal." I could have cried then and there. Praise Jesus! I know it is only because him that it ended up this way. In a very, very strange way, one I never could have dreamed, this whole situation has become such a huge blessing to me.
I have never felt God's love in such a tangible way before. I have never seen my heart revealed in such a dark light. I spent my afternoon looking at my self in a new light. For so long I have felt like a failure, a disapointment. I struggle with my self image. I think I got a small glimpse of how the Lord sees me. I am His Daughter. He adores me. He sent his one and only Son to die a horrible death so I could spend eternity with him. Here I am struggling for weeks at the possibility of not having children. God gave his son, for me. What am I willing to give to Him?
I had truly lost sight of what really matters. Nothing this earth has to offer could ever compare to the extravagant love my Father has lavished on me. Not even children.
My desire is to live a life pleasing to God. I hope that great things happen in my life, but I know that my treasure is in Heaven. I have been given the opportunity to spend eternity dancing in the arms of my Holy, Heavenly Father. What could top that?
