victory :: 31 days

one of our son's struggles with a HUGE battle and it's been very painful for our family for the last...um...2 years and 4 months.

i've spent my time focusing on it and letting it get to me and letting it ruin our family. sometimes worse than others, but always letting it go too deep...and not handing it over to the ONLY one that can win the battles and, ultimately, the war.

but i've experienced victory this week and i'm so very thankful.

thanks to my husband's leading and my Father's strength, even though the battle continues to be lost almost daily for this son, He is using it to teach me and grow me.

the victory this week wasn't exactly making blind eyes see...or the lame legs walk...but the peace that has remained in my heart EVEN AMIDST the losing battles has felt like a miraculous victory and i'm so thankful.

{the picture. i could say it has nothing to do with this post. but it does. and i just need it on here, ok? thanks.}
