Some mornings you wake up and get hit with a quiet reminder of the faithfulness of God.
That was me today with a smiling three year old crawling into bed beside me at 6 a.m.
It’s not every morning, but sometimes I’m stopped in my tracks by the miracle of just being here. I think back to the early days of how Emily came into our life. We first met her in the NICU. Four months there, a feeding tube past her first birthday, multiple surgeries in just a few short years. And now, here she is, just doing what kids do when they wake up early.
I grabbed a coffee. She grabbed a juice. We laid in bed for a bit. She watched Dino Ranch, and I just sat with the weight of God’s goodness. He has seen and known every page of our story.
You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book And when I wake up, you are still with me. Psalm 139:16
