Reach

"If only all the hands that reach could touch". I believe God reveals our weaknesses to humble us, make us rely on him developing faith and to show us his great love for us. Guess what? I flew to Chicago and I did not die:) Toward the middle of the flight after a great deal of prayer and singing gospel songs and Scott praying too I felt some peace. It was just when I thought I could not take anymore... I was delivered:) I started to enjoy the beauty of the earth as the sun reflected like a mirror off all the frozen rivers and lakes. I loved seeing the scene change from snowed sapped mountains to plains. I loved gazing into my Scott's deep eyes and hold his hand and smile and laugh with him. I worked on following my friend Laurie's advice to give into the fear and embrace it, I sang songs that remind me of Kelsie and thought how Marlene said the kids would be thrilled to be flying. I thought of my mom saying she believed in me that I was a big girl that I could do it. I thought of Candice telling me that it was more likely for me to get pregnant than crash. I thought of all the cute kids at church and the tremendous faith they have in Jesus and Gods love for all of us. I felt the many prayers from friends and family that were praying for my safe peace of mind. I repeated scriptures like... Fear not little flock, Peace be still, Ask Seek Knock, lo and behold I am with thee. At first I was horrified, I wanted to jump out of the plane I was in exquisite pain, then the Spirit wrapped me up in love and peace. I love me Father in Haven and all of the many many friends and family that were pulling for me... THANK YOU AND BLESS YOU!!! We fly home next week so I sure love more prayers and your faith once again. With Gos all things really are possible. Just think I used to fly all the time and now maybe I will be able too again!
