Encouragement Tonight
As we prepare to go into a new week, it is my prayer God will go ahead of us and pave the way for what we do not know awaits us.
Hugs to those who are struggling during this season in your life. I know God knows about all of it and He is already ahead of us in anything we could try to plan.
For those who are in a relatively easy season where life just seems to be allowing you to coast along, enjoy it. Rest here my friend as I suspect you are either coming out of a difficult time or God may have you preparing for one that is ahead of you at some point.
I am not trying to be doom and gloom on my last sentence, but I remember once I had a pastor tell me we are all experiencing journeys in our lives. We are either in the middle of a hard time, getting ready to go through one, or you just came out of one.
It made so much sense and I have truly witnessed this happen in my own life over the years.
It is, however, my desire to leave you on a much happier note. It is my prayer you were able to get some rest this weekend, or you were able to get some much-needed stuff done. Either way, it happened, I hope you are able to get a good night sleep and are able to start your week off with a wonderful Monday morning.

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
