Be Still

I have faith. I have a lot of faith actually. I have faith that God is who He says He is. I have faith that He will do what He says He will do. He always keeps His promises. I have faith that He does more than we can ever ask or imagine. I have faith that His love for His children is so deep and so wide. It is unfathomable. I have faith that He works all things together for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.

As believers, we are called to have faith. That means it’s a command. We must have faith on the hardest of days. We must have faith deep in our hearts even when there is no evidence to support it.

But sometimes, for His glory. We get evidence.

Last summer was hard. That is an understatement. But, my heavenly Father was right there. He consistently drew me to Himself. He comforted my aching heart. He literally surrounded us with all the people who showed us all the love. And He was in all the details. He always is.

I started Sunshine-Soldier in February of 2021. My heart was bursting with all that the Lord was doing in our family. I just needed a place to share. Friends and family followed the blog. I would also often share posts with people I met in life. One in particular, “Darkness”, I shared a lot. It is about a very dark time in my life when I was coming to terms with Caleb having special needs.

When Silas was hit by a tree and taken by LifeStar to UT hospital, the outpouring of love and concern was immediate. I heard from everyone I had ever met in life. And more. It was impossible to keep up with the correspondence. So, I notified everyone that updates would be on Sunshine-Soldier. Which is a public domain.

People were touched by Silas. He made his way right into people’s hearts. So many prayed without ceasing. And they shared. Apparently a lot of people shared a lot.

I just came across this last night. Amazing. This is WordPress geographical data for the month of June 2022. Look how Silas’s story and testimony spread! Incredible. God is just so big. He is so mighty. There is nothing he cannot do.

Psalm 46:10- “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”
