If I had only known…

Saturday was supposed to be the day my kids and I celebrated Easter together. My relationship with my 2 oldest daughters is still uncertain. Sitting here, I find myself hoping my girls will choose to spend part of the Holiday with me. Thinking, if I had only known last Easter was the last my girls would want to spend time with me…I would have…..

How many times in my life have I thought “If I had only known”. Once again wanting control over my life. Wanting to manipulate circumstances to fix a feeling in a moment. Is that letting go and letting God? No…and I can turn to scripture as a reminder of God’s love and presence.

Be patient; Be gentle; Be humble; Be loving. Ephesians 4:2-3

For I know the Plans I have for you.” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.Jeremiah 20:4

God is with me. God is walking step by step, on the journey of life. Reminding me to settle in his peace, pray and let go.
