The different shovels we need in our life. Sometimes we need a snow shovel cause things get wet and heavy. Sometimes we need a bucket to bail out. Sometimes we need a shovel to dig deep. And sometimes we just need a cup.

Today marks the one month anniversary of that life changing event that propelled me into that journey of grief I talked about last. "How are you doing" seems such a loaded question. How does one measure that? How does one evaluate where you are on a journey where there seems to be no guidelines? I know now I never knew how much hurt a heart could handle. I never knew how much I loved the feelings of joy and how much the feelings of sorrow hurt. I never knew one could love so much and miss so much of the simple every day stuff. I never knew what my Saviour did for me and the hurt his Father must have felt.



God is Good and I can say that He does provide. Are all questions answered absolutely not. As my sister said in reading a book - by Max Lucado - Traveling Light - It says sorrow is like a cloud moving in and you never really know when or where. Yes that is so true. Today is another step one month to the day.



Lord my prayer is that I can rely on you for each step in this unfamiliar journey and my I never leave your leading or path.

Stepping in todays journey
