Blessing of Prayers

In the last two years my family has faced so many challenges (being struck by the May 2024 tornado), the unexpected cancer diagnosis and sudden death of my father-in-law and what felt like so many other (seemingly) minor inconveniences that added insult to injury and lots of emotional exhaustion in our time of sorrow. We were blessed with the welcome, unexpected addition of our fourth daughter who was due four days before the death anniversary of my father-in-law and I know her life is a precious gift from the Lord who redeemed such a hard time of year and showed us joy after a year of chaos and heartache. She was born four weeks early and incredibly healthy, praise God! Whenever this song comes on the radio it feels like an exhale and brings calm to my soul. I know people have been praying so deeply for us in this season (and before, too)! It is a reminder that for all of my days I have been prayed for, even if I didn’t realize it, and I know those prayers have been answered during every season of my life even if I didn’t see where God was leading me in different times. My greatest blessings and answered prayers are the gift of my incredible husband, moving  throughout the country that provided beautiful relationships including making NWA home and four daughters (my dream was always to have three girls — four is the greatest blessing). I love this so and hope it is played often! I am going to see Ben in concert this week and cannot wait! I know Someone must have been praying for me.
