My friend Laurie sent me this picture of these two moments; seven years ago when she was by my side during chemo and last week when we ran 20 miles together.

I teared up seeing these pictures side by side, thankful for my friend and to God for renewing my life and using my struggle for a greater purpose.

Seeing these pictures reminded me that when we can’t see the other side of the unknown or struggle, God does. And He will use all things for good…even though we may not get how He could.

I share this with you today because I know others are facing a struggle right now or an unknown. If that’s you, invite you to join me to…

pause. breathe. pray.

May we invite God into the struggle. Even though we may not see the other side as He does, may we trust that He will help us through and He will make good of all things, in time.

With love and hope,
Shawn
