Encouragement Today
This was inspired by a friend who reminded me there is always hope for a brighter today.
The storm may be raging and the rain may be flowing, but it does not matter how dark life may seem or how stormy it may feel, God has a promise for us to remember…
“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” John 1:5 NIV
Rise and shine my friend, there is hope for God to quiet the strife, dry the tears, calm the chaos, and heal the pain in your life.
He will shed light on your darkness and bring calm to your storm. Rest in His arms today.
Find the peace, which He offers ever so graciously and live in the “light” which He has made available.
When life may seem it’s darkest, remember this truth, God always has your back. He is there at every turn and through every storm. You are never alone.
In closing, “Just Believe”. Believe in the hope. Believe in the light. Believe in your God!

I am a wife, mom, and daughter. I served in the United States Army, went to college, received a Batchelor's Degree in Criminology, homeschooled my daughter every year from start to finish, and now I am currently a daycare teacher's aide (soon to be a two-year-old teacher coming this fall).
I married my husband when he was in the United States Army so I have the unique knowledge of what it is like to be on both sides of a Military uniform.
While we were stationed in Germany, my daughter, who is 24 years old now, was born and I made the difficult decision to put my career on hold to be her mom.
The past 20 years have been wrought with many struggles but as a result of those struggles, this blog was created.
As the years passed and the struggle kept coming, I would say, "I'm not sure why we have to go through all of this, but if we have to then it is my desire to allow my story to serve as a means of encouragement to others so all this pain isn't for nothing."
The years passed and the struggles did not. However, I feel now is the time God wants me to share these stories of hardships with the hopes they provide encouragement to you if you are struggling in the same way. It is my prayer they will serve as a healing opportunity for you.
I want you to know you are not alone. There are others who know where you are and what you are feeling.
Cling to the hope this won't last forever and that God is standing beside you while He holds you up and dries your tears. He is showing you the way, you just need to follow Him.
Big Hugs, Heidi
