When I was Christmas shopping with my two besties I found this little house. Not the kind of thing I normally go for, it spoke to me and I brought it home.
The words spoke to me.
I am exactly where I need to be.
Three years ago, in November 2022, my son and I moved back to our old home, my husband having broken up our marriage, his church ministry, the house that came with that and everything I thought was ours, including our future. 27 years and here I was, a single mum of a disabled teen, juggler extraordinaire out of necessity.
I remember sitting in my cold study (worried about heating, not yet sure about finances and in a fight with the power company) and telling my elderly dog 'You're going to have to survive another winter buddy, because I need you'. Followed by sobbing.
Exodus 14:14 - The Lord will fight for you, you need only be still.
You are exactly where you need to be. Just sit, in surrender. He will take care of it. He did. He was so faithful. He surrounded me with a family of friends, took care of my finances, saw us through that dark winter. And has not let go, ever since.
