I was diagnosed with breast cancer in November. I’m so thankful for God’s grace through this season. Sitting with Him was all I could do some days- being exhausted and sick because of treatment or terrible brain fog- to say to Him or read anything was nearly impossible. He was always near.
Thank you for sharing what you have been walking through this past year. "He was always near" - I love how you said this. I'm so glad you have been experiencing His nearness this past year in all you have traversed. He is always near, praise be to God.
Right there with you. And my most recent post was actually a bit similar! Also I’m beginning the Ignatian Exercises and I hear many notes of it in your writing so you must have gone through it as well? Our reading yesterday was that Matthew 11 one and gosh I love the MSG version of the passage. Hope you get some rest, in all the ways :)
Hi Sarah, thanks for reading and I’m going to have to check out your post as well! I LOVE that you’re beginning to exercises. They have such a tender space in my heart, I completed them a couple years ago. I hope they are a gift to your heart in this season.
This has got me thinking and remembering when we lost a child to miscarriage and I was so broken I couldn’t open my Bible. I was too tired for that spiritual fight but the Lord ministered to me in my need and brought truth to my remembrance. Thank you for this invitation to rest with the Lord.
Wow Amber, I’m so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing this here. I’m so glad you were able to be loved and cared for by God in this season. Remembering is such a beautiful practice of experiencing God’s goodness and once I personally have to return to again and again. We also experienced a loss of a child through miscarriage which was earlier this year. Remembering was something I really had to sit with in that season as well. ❤️
I love and relate with this so much. This past year has forced me to slow down and learn how to just be with Jesus in silence, soaking Him in, without having to even say anything. I learned it's more about the posture of my heart than my words anyway. He's so kind. 🤍 Thank you for sharing, and I do hope you are able to get some physical rest today! 🙏
Thank you! What a gift to experience the kindness of Jesus in this season for you. I agree that it’s so much more than our words and learning to process the depths of where our hearts are. I appreciate your encouragement.
So good!
