I hadn’t felt this blue in quite some time.
I felt so unsettled.
Even a wave of torment came out of nowhere.
I had a couple of hours of driving ahead of me. The sky was clear and the air was cool.
I searched the radio to find a station, hoping to hear the same voice I had heard weeks ago giving a sermon. He was very calming and thoughtful with his words. But instead, the scan paused and I heard the familiar melody: there will be an answer, let it be.
Immediately I felt calm.
There will be an answer. Yes, I reminded myself. Let the tears come. But let truth have the final say.
This is for me.
This is for you, too.
Because God let’s us know he is not very far from us, even when it feels like it.

Grief never leaves us…it only changes its shape.
I am glad God gave you the peace you needed after the “wave of torment.” He never changes. Amen.
