"You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you. Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD God is an everlasting rock." Isaiah 26:4-5
10. God's quiet strength in my frenzied and flailing weakness.
11. God's whispering words of comfort and encouragement into my ear this morning as He wrestles control from my fists shut tight.
12. God's proving over and over that yes, He is so worthy of all of my trust. He has never disappointed me.
13. God's holding the infinite and the finite in the palm of His hand and He knows each hair on my head and He knows my name and He loves me and I am reeling at the thought.

9. So thankful for answered prayer in the form of new friendships.
"If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up! Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can we keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not easily broken." Ecc. 4:10-12
Blessed by the beautiful (inside and out) women who love Jesus with all their hearts, that God has brought into my life. Who, I can already tell, are going to encourage me, challenge me, teach me, and help me up.
