I Can Trust 

****************************

If He can shine

the sun on me

and still the waves

of the sea

then I can trust 

and rest in peace.

Motherhood is the most important part of my life

after my relationship with God and my husband.

~

~

This year I’ve pulled back more and more

as my teens have gotten older.

 I know they’ve got what it takes.

I did a Happy Mama Dance this week

when one of our sons got accepted into

a program that only takes a couple of students per year.  

He wants to work with cars (normal teen guy).

~

~

I can’t even begin to tell you how many times I’ve prayed 

for God’s will to be done in each of our children’s lives.

And my husband’s.

And mine. 

~

But I know that I can trust and rest in peace.

For the NaNoWriMo novel I’m working on,

one of my favorite verses came up

when a character picked up his neglected bible.

~

Delight yourself in the LORD

and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Psalm 37:4

~

That was the theme verse for our wedding over 31 years ago.

~

~

One of the desires of my heart has been to write a book and get it published.

~

While I was quietly working on this post,

my husband looked over from his desk 

and told me he was glad I’m writing,

and then he read me this quote:

~

Of all sad words of mouth or pen,

the saddest are these:

It might have been.
