Transitions

Although being in a transitional time can be a little scary. It has been my experience that it usually leads to a better place. My experience also tells me that you need to completely lean into God for guidance in your next steps. As much as we want to think we know what is best for us. God created the plan.

I am currently in a time of a lot of things transitioning in my life. As I watched our oldest graduate yesterday, it really sunk in that we have to cherish this time with her. Her father and I pray that God covers her in this next chapter. As she steps into her own. I want to know that everything is going to be fine for her, and overall it will be. Life will still happen and that is something she will have to navigate. I pray that she come to us when she needs help.

I think about how we want to have all the answers for our children, but don't even have all the answers for ourselves. God knows we can not handle it all. He would never overwhelm us with the weight we can not yet carry. God will always show us pieces of it to keep us moving forward. He knows who he made and gives us vision. I pray that we are who our children need when they come to us unsure.

I have not yet carried a child, but I pray regularly that he blesses me to be the portal he brings his greatest creations through. That I learn to love, nurture, and rear them as he has done for me. That I be graced to be the mother my children need. That I have the wisdom to get out of God's way so they can be who he created them to be.

I know for sure I walk stronger and more courageous into each transition because my relationship with God grows stronger daily.
