I am thinking about my trip and anticipating the opportunity to share about my experience of the past 8 months… since I was last home. I am thinking about what I would want to share. How would I summarize what I have learned or “Why God has allowed this to happen”?
I could go in several directions, but I think one of the greatest lessons has been the importance of relationships. I am blessed by my husband and my daughters. I am blessed by friends who have stuck with me through all of my searching and distress. I know in time I will see or understand more of the hand of God.
Right now I see the blessing of being married to the Shepherd. Knowing his faithfulness to love me in sickness and in health, in good times and bad,that he has chosen to love, honor and respect me….. even as I have a different mind and body than when he made the covenant to me.
