Calm in the Storm

I turned on Air1 this morning while I did the dishes, standard procedure around here. But today was especially uplifting. 

Coppelia brought up the plight of a friend who had recently lost a baby and the prayers she was sending up on her behalf.

She mentioned a certain scripture, now one of my favorites: Psalms 34:18

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those whose spirits are crushed.  

Talk about an amazing verse!

I thought "Here is something encouraging that speaks directly to my heart!" We recently lost another pregnancy and the last few weeks have been..... rough. 

I was/am so grateful for the timing of God's blessings. Not in mine, but His... His perfect timing. The same timing I often question.

In short - God is good regardless of how I feel or the circumstances I face and these little reminders of His never ending faithfulness make me smile - a calm in the storm.
