A test of my faith

Since Isaac was born we've gone through several things that have been incredibly difficult and trying. These incidences have tested my faith.

But not in a negative way.

My faith has been tested in strength. In that I've poured myself and my worries and fears into prayer, put everything before God and relied on Him to carry us through. My faith has been tested to see how strong it is, how much it can withstand when I depend upon it constantly. Most days, my faith is all that gets me through. I've not questioned God or wondered how this could happen to me, to us. All I've done is had faith that God has a plan for us, to prosper and not harm us. I've had faith that we are exactly where we are supposed to be, exactly where He wants us. I've had faith that my God is loving, merciful, compassionate and forgiving.

I'm so thankful for my faith. For my God. For my love. For this family He has blessed me with that makes every day worth living. No matter what goes on in our lives, we have each other and our faith. For that I am so thankful.
