Breathing may be the only thing you can do today, and if so, that’s ok.
Were you breathless when you read that pregnancy test, not only breathless, but hopeless, on your knees? Do you not know who to call or what to do next?
I know a God who will pick you up, walk with you, stand with you or sit with you, while you just breathe. He’s the God of breath, life, hope and peace and He’ll find you here, right where you are, in this moment of desperation and provide a way out. See, He knew the moment you’d see that ➕ sign, He knew where you’d be, with your best friend, or alone and He’s preparing you for this life.
This life, your story, is His story, and His story is the story of grace and redemption.
I just read, again, where Max Lucado said, "The difference between mercy and grace? Mercy gave the prodigal son a second chance. Grace gave him a feast. How true is this, and such a sweet, sweet picture. God not only gives us a second chance, but His grace is there for us, waiting, and it never runs out.
But today, if all you can do is breathe, that's ok, just breathe.
