“ I trust God. I give Him my fears and anxieties, my weaknesses, and my darkest hours. And God helps. His loving eternal embrace surrounds me.”

That’s the key. Love it.

My friend,

This is a beautiful, vulnerable piece of writing. I feel the sorrow - but I feel your strength. And I’m pondering earlier Notes…

You’re never alone. I’ll battle demons in the darkness by your side any day.

Thank you for reminding me I’m never alone, either.

Dear Kathrine

That tiny dot of light shining in your heart is all you need to sustain you. It doesn't let your fire go out. You will always have tiny sparks, within the embers of hope lying beneath the ashes of misery and pain. Hold tight and pray your way back to the fullness of life that God wants for you. Take care!

Our soul is illuminated when we light a candle in the darkness of our minds. Only then can we hear with our eyes and see with our hearts. Thank you for your post.
