So my husband and I were talking the other night and he asked what I was going to do the next day. And I said "oh I don't know probably take the kids to church, then maybe attempt the park." And he replied "I thought you were like atheist when I first met you."
Now that statement is not exactly true. I mean I did not like to go to church, but my thought was you did not have to go to the house of God to worship God, but things like cancer come up and then there's the supportive church family who are there for you more than your own family (at least in my experience) when you go to God's house. Now I am by no means a bible thumper but I have put my faith in my doctors and God at this point and am starting to believe everything happens for a reason. So when I was at church yesterday we read a prayer that spoke to me so loudly I could barely finish it without crying... If you don't mind I would like to share it now. Just so I can go back to this post from time to time and remind myself this is in God's hands.
God of light, you do not see as others see; you look beyond our limitations and find us strong and beautiful for your purpose. Help us now to see Jesus your son who, though he was despised and rejected, became our beautiful Savior. Show us Jesus' face in the face of those who suffer, and lead us to give your healing touch to all. Amen
