"Reconciling What Happened to my Mom with God’s Goodness"

What we KNOW:
  • God knows all and is ever-present

  • His power is infinite, limitless

  • He is merciful, just, faithful

  • He promises to be at work in our lives and therefore, He is our true Hope

  • That our view of things is severely limited

  • Scripture speaks succinctly and powerfully to suffering Romans 5:3-5, James 1:2-4

  • Gods sanctification in our afflictions are a greater mercy than if He were to deliver us out of them

  • "For I consider that the problems of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. Romans 8:18. It won't only be 100 times better, it is NOT WORTH comparing

  • He is working all things for our good Romans 8:28

  • His plan is to grow us to become more like Him...



Through the caregiving experience, I now have GAINED:
  • An outpouring of God's love and grace through His people in the church

  • Understanding that His Grace is truly sufficient in every circumstance 

  • Opportunities to speak about the Hope we can have in suffering and trials

  • Teaching pottery classes about how God molds, shapes and refines us 

  • Understanding that God created us more resilient than I ever knew

  • Opportunities to share the blessings of God through artwork.

  • A great compassion and tenderness for those who suffer

  • Confidence in His faithfulness and promises

  • Reconciliation of relationship with my Mom

  • Transformation in myself more precious than gold

  • Gratefulness to God for His plans in our lives

  • Humility before His all-sufficiency

  • An active prayer life and prayer card ministry

  • Seeing God break through disease 

  • Truth about the character of God

  • A sound theology of suffering
