Today I have no title for this blog. I have tried for days to sit down and write something that I felt would even resemble encouragement or even be worthy for someone to read. I find myself these days struggling in my own heart to make sense of the things going on around me. We have a designated time each week with our women’s ministry to meet in our sanctuary at our church. I try to go as often as I can. Last week, I was going to be the only one there and I walked in after finding out no one was coming and decided I would journal and talk out loud to the Lord that day. I got my Bible open and with my pen in hand and my journal ready with the day’s date, I suddenly just started to sob. I mean sob. I felt the presence of God just loving on me. Actually the same thing happened at this week’s prayer time and a dear Christian sister sat beside me with her arm around me while I covered my face with a kleenex hoping I wouldn’t make a scene. I just hurt for the world right now. I can’t describe it any other way. My husband and I find ourselves sitting together with our morning coffee and someone will be brought to our minds and we spend time praying for them at that moment. I am so thankful for a prayer warrior husband. I have asked God to forgive me for wasted energy and time on things that are really not of importance to Him. I know He has given me one life to live on this earth and I have begun to understand that I need to reevaluate how I am doing. So, I say all that to say this. As I read through the blogs of precious young wives having to deal with so much in their lives with our world situation, I want you to know dear ones that I am praying for you during this time. You influence me and you amaze me with each new story and sharing of your hearts. Continue on in this endeavor because you never know who may be reading your story and be blessed and encouraged by your words. I know that I am.
We need each other right now and God needs us to pray for each other. Spend time today just letting God love you and love on you through the quiet and the prayers. I am so thankful for Sara’s passion for prayer during this time leading to the conference. There is no better place for us to be than on our faces before our God.
God bless you today as you continue the military journey knowing others are lifting you in prayer!

I felt like I was reading my own writing. In fact, it sounds a whole lot like the email I sent to a dear friend of mine yesterday. Thank you for sharing what's on your heart! I'm sure many, like myself, will be blessed by reading this today.
