Stillness In Chaos

It’s hard. Trying to heal and work on the better version of yourself while simultaneously trying to raise an emotionally, mentally, and spiritually healthy child isn’t straightforward. There is this constant battle between wanting to respond to the unfairness of circumstances and searching for the desire to hope in post-divorce chaos. Finding and seeking hope is hard when every decision feels like it makes life as a single mom harder.  Never impossible, though, just hard enough to make the impossible something to manage. But how does a single mom respond to harder? She chugs forward. She put's on her bootstraps and moves one foot in front of the other. She’s done this before.  Her legs were built on the routine of “push through.” All you want is for all the chaos and every circumstance, every scenario that works against your work to thrive, to stop.

His redemptive love

…and grace are our peace

But realize as you navigate those circumstances the peace of God is real. It’s a promise. If you believe in His promises, rest knowing that His stillness is yours despite the chaos.

It’s hard to see now, but you will make it. Cry, pray,  or shout all the hurt and allow His love to fill those hurt places. God is for you. He’s the God of second and third chances. His redemptive love and grace are our peace, our core promise. He seeks you and waits for you as His beloved. He waits for his invitation to enter your heart and remind you how valuable you are to Him, even in your current situation. When the blessings of companionship meet you again, and your dream of family reawakens, His blessings prove you are worth it.
