He Is Part Of Your Story

“The parts of the story you want to cut out are the very parts that God wants to write in...

He wants to take where we’ve been and show us He was there.

He wants to show us He saw the loneliness in our eyes and heard the cries that went unshed.

He causes the events of our struggles to coincide with His timing –

to help us understand He rescues us,
when we can’t put the pieces back together again;

to love us when we feel unlovable,
so that we can no longer deny His undying faithfulness to us."
