When its Dark

The last time that I found myself in a “dark” place spiritually or I should say consistently consumed with the unknowns of how something would turn out it was helpful to document what I was feeling.

Eight years ago we built a home for our family. It was the most challenging experience of my life. What’s interesting was it was self-inflicted. No one MADE us build the house that we built, but we definitely felt led to do it and was confident that God would provide for us.

And, there were a lot of unknowns throughout that process. Unmet deadlines, questionable funding, unreliable subcontractors, etc. So many factors that contributed to daily stress. If I could put it plainly.

Now, 8 years later as I reflect back on the process its interesting to ponder over how God in His sovereignty brought us through that process. There were many moments that we didn’t know how we would continue on and God saw us through.

Many tearful moments and prayers lifted up for God to be glorified in the construction of our home and now there are many tearful moments and prayers lifted up to leave this place.

To move on to an even higher glorification of my Father out of sacrifice, pruning, giving up of something that God was so gracious to give to us.

I remain hopeful that God has a plan for our family and that He will glorified beyond measure.
