Dear Toph -
I hear you, loud and clear.
I sense the grace of God, & His love, when I think of how He transformed my father from an abuser into a disciple who asked my forgiveness; when I think of how my own self-abuse should have killed me; when I see a husband who's stood by me through 15 years of being married to an addict; when I see seven healthy children who still love me despite the years of neglect & focus on myself; when I think of the miraculous healing He gave me from bulimia; when I remember how He carried me through the miscarriage of my baby...
I get glimpses, touches, fragments of His peace. But I know there's more, much more. More peace, more love, more joy, more freedom, more power, more repentence, more gratitude, more healing.
Do you ever wonder what's in the way of receiving?
Shalom, Dena
