spring's hope

4/7/2010

driving to a new doctor's appointment today, i seemed to literally "feel" that warmth of spring and the hope that piggy backs in on green leaves and sunshine.  this morning's spring's emotions represented the hope that grew in my heart for the impending doctor's visit and what new perspectives she could bring to a stale, tiresome situation of my husband's health.  o! what i wouldn't give for some "spring rain" - and, yes, even a down pour - on this dormant ground of his health.

i walk away with mixed emotions.  i walk away saying to God, "here.  here's all of our money.  we still have no answers.  and i still have to trust You."

and i do.  ultimately, the other choice of not trusting Him is not only completely despairing, but absolutely wrong.  and i choose Him.

so i recenter my emotions... so as to not get hope from the light spring drizzle mingled with sunshine, but from the Rain-maker Himself, the Sun-birther.

i would have lost heart, unless i had believed that i would see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.   psalm 27:13
