This weekend, I experienced the calming power of Jesus. In light of Jonathan's wreck on Thursday, I was made all too aware of the fragility of life. I barely slept a wink Thursday night and I was on edge seeing how anxious Jonathan was when we were in the car on Friday. I watched him like a hawk all weekend while we were with his family in Huntsville. I went to a shower and went shopping with his mom and sister all day; all the while, I kept thinking, what if he has a sever headache, blurred vision, etc... My nursing mind was playing against me.
In church today, the pastor discussed God's Amazing Grace. My eyes were opened to what I had failed to do: Rely on God. I prayed a prayer and in that instant, felt a calming sense of peace. The Lord had his hand on Jon and on me last Thursday. We are never guaranteed tomorrow, but we are guaranteed God's presence and with that, we can surely make it through anything. Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound!
