Revelation

Jason and I have been going to a small group at our church for a couple months. The couple that leads the group invited us over to dinner tonight. It was so nice to get together and to get to know them better. The wife of the couple told me that she’s been fervently praying for me and the response that came quickly to mind was that “it’s working.” Lately I have had an almost odd sense of peace, a peace that doesn’t make much sense to me considering our circumstances. She agreed that in the deepest trails sometimes it feels like there is a protective bubble around us. There is no other way to explain that this strength and peace comes directly from God. There has never been more of a time in my life that God is so plainly here me with. I’m not going to lie; I grew up with what I think are the normal wonderings and doubts about God.  Since high school and college my faith has grown and in each chapter of my life my relationship with God has grown deeper. Through this specific journey, the depth of that relationship has changed completely. His existence to me is now fact. There is not even a tiny bit of doubt of who He is and how He loves us. Someone telling me that God isn’t real right now would be like telling me the grass is purple. Everyday this journey surprises me; sometimes in absolute wonderful ways.
