What LHS has meant

From my journal on Monday

"So, Lake Hart Stint is over and we are now in St. Pete. When I think about LHS being over I get sad, and I didn't think I would get this emotional about it. When we finally laid on the floor of our empty apartment at Cypress Lake, I started tearing up. This apartment represented so much and it is where God restored so much.

- I came as a worn out, tired woman and was leaving as a woman who literally had new life in her
- I came somewhat resenting motherhood and am leaving seeing it as a true blessing
- My son came as a source of great frustration for me and is leaving as a source of great joy
- I cam doubting God's goodness and am leaving with full faith that he has my best in mind
- Dylan and I cam as two individuals, co-existing in the same space just trying to survive and are leaving stronger and more in love than before
- My husband came exhausted from ministry and lack of vision and is leaving motivated with a better dream than he could have ever dreamt of

As I laid on the floor I thought of these things and how God has been so good to us. The walls of that apartment represented his blessings in our lives"
