My God, the Way Maker

So here we go!

Today is the first day of my year-long quest to see God. All day my eyes were open and searching. I noticed many things today, and wondered could that be it? Is this the one I will write about? Then I read my daughter’s first post of the new year on Facebook. She talked about all that has happened over the last decade. Ten years ago, we were in a very dark place. She didn’t see things the way we did, and within a few months, our relationship was broken. Lots of tears, lots of sadness and so much brokenness. Today, as I write this so much, has been restored. So much has healed. And God has done exceedingly, abundantly, above and beyond all I could have hoped for, or even imagined. I have two grandchildren that I adore. I have a son-in-law that I love. My daughter and her family live five minutes from me. I help home-school my grandchildren, while my daughter gets her master’s degree. I see them almost every day. Reading her post about all God has done in her life, and how far we have all come, I knew… this is it. More days than not, I smile at the miracle I am living. Ten years ago, I couldn’t imagine all that God would do, all that he would restore. It is bigger and better than I ever dreamed of. He did more than just restore, He made it extraordinary. He did more than just heal a relationship, He healed hearts and minds. He grew me in ways that are beyond words. Miracle Worker, Way Maker, that’s my God.
