Do you remember when you would go to the theme park and stand in line for hours to ride the roller coaster? It was scary, it was exciting, and it was fun! We just could not wait for the fun to begin? Our faith journey i believe should be like this, instead of mountains and valleys it should be described like a roller coaster ride! Adventure and thrills from the minute you are belted in, until you hit the first upside down thrill, the fear of the upcoming hill, the anticipation ...

I remember the days of waiting on God for answers, miraculous answers to prayer- struggling through hardship in a season of IVF and feelings of hopelessness, inadequacy and desperation, to be blessed so ...
So from a meandering dream of questions and answers in an unknown universe that I visited due to potent allergy pills, I awakened happy to be in this familiar world and I was filled with a contentment and assurance that, yes, a Godly eternal thing had been done for me.
