I'm sorry for the irregular and less-frequent posts. There's been a lot I've wanted to comment on and talk about, but deadlines have been pressing for the past week. Additionally, God seems to be doing some work on me that involves being quiet. Some of it has been personal sadness, which has found its way into my posts and made them melancholy, unfortunately. This is mostly because I've had some setbacks recently and I'm physically not doing all that great. I've never had it all together, but now it seems my debris field is expanding.

When times are tough like this, I need more than ever to hear God. It's dark, the wind is shaking the house, and it doesn't feel like much is holding it together. I need His peace. I need His strength. I need to feel Him stand by me through all of it. Right now, I'm groping for His hand and the good news is that I'm finding it. He will be with me to complete this work. He will not abandon me to the winds. I have a hope. I have a future. His name is Jesus, and He's the best friend I've ever had. He will sit with me through the storm.
