God has been rocking my world with my false idea of "saving myself" and that scripture you referenced has been the center of a lot of it. Thanks for continuing to share your heart with people, I'm praying for you. I love this.

It is comforting to remember that Jesus will step in and pray for us when we don't have the vocabulary, the strength, the stamina to do it ourselves. He is praying what needs to be prayed on your behalf. Trust it and believe that even in the midst of your grief, He is still who He says He is and He will do all that He promises He will do for you. Just wrap your arms around His neck and cry... He's big enough and strong enough to carry you through. There are no words…

I have a few things on my mind. Right now I'm faced with big decisions, and I'm wondering if you have a minute Right now I don't hear so well and I was wondering if You could speak up. I know that you tore the veil so I could sit with You in person and hear what You're saying, but right now, I just can't hear You I don't doubt Your sovereignty, I doubt my own ability to hear what You're saying and to do the right thing, and I desperately want to do the right thing..." This made me think of you. I am praying for you, Alece. I miss you. I miss a lot of things about us, truthfully, but mostly I miss your hugs, your eyes, your wisdom, your sense of humor. I hate being tired. I am praying for Endurance. I've been swimming lately, and I realized how out of shape I am. And I've been trying to do between 1,000 and 1,500 yards a day. And maybe it takes me an hour and fifteen minutes, with more than a few minutes between each set, I still get it done. Praying for endurance, even if it comes from you Resting. Love you. “Hello Lord, it’s me Your child. I have

After all, my life is so much better this year than last year, so I ought to be on the top of the world and rejoicing. You'd think. But the lingering pain is still there. Memories that still sting. A holiday season last year that was one of intense suffering. And I'm struggling to get into this season. Thinking of you. Wishing we could come drag you up here. No matter how much of a funk we're in, the energy of four kids, sleds, and snow is enough to make me at least act happy some of the time! You know, I’m in a funk, too, and scolding myself for it.
