Life can be hard. The trials can be intense but Christ is becoming sweeter to me. The way He patiently comes through. Oh for the grace to trust him more.

The past week has been a difficult one. I have been physically ill and felt so isolated. Battled with brain fog and despair. Self pity showed up too. I felt the fight and thought I was losing. I constantly prayed to God for help. I didn’t feel immediate relief but kept going (by God’s grace)! Today the cloud seems to be lifting. I went to church and that brief fellowship time refreshed my soul. God’s mercy is truly great. I feel His patience and love for me. It never left of course. It just reminds me how fickle feelings can be. I’m encouraged that the cloud always lifts. Joy comes in the morning. I will continue to wait for the morning.
