"3" T

Truth is.

God's goodness is there

When I have homework stressing me out.
When my dress has a 3 inch hole in it.
When the sun shines on me outside at lunch in my ripped up backyard.
When Aidan is crying in pain because of pushing it too hard at his games this weekend.
When Micah is grumpy.
When Jeremy and me are in a bad place.
When Jeremy and me are in a great place.
When I don't know what the best decision is for the future.
When I am sick of writing papers and doing discussions.
When I have no time.
When I have extra time.
When it takes me a week to watch a 45 minute episode of This is Us.
When Summer is only 6 weeks away.
When Summer is unknown and we haven't bought plane tickets YET with our vouchers.
When I make extra money tutoring.
When I'm exhausted from early morning Saturday practice.
When we sneak in a hike on a Sunday afternoon.
When the game goes to overtime.
When they lose in overtime.
When I have so many unknowns.
When I'm tired.
When I have laundry piling up.
When I'm writing papers at Modern Market on a Wednesday night.
When we wonder how the heck everyone else seems to have plenty of money for new cars, new bikes, and vacations.
When I feel that everyone around me isn't aware and taking care of me.

Truth is.

Life isn't about the moment I'm in. It isn't about circumstances. It isn't about the sun shining. It isn't about the games won or lost.

It is about all of it. It is about God's goodness through it all. 

All. Of. It. 

That is where I'm trying to be on a Thursday night in April.
