As I opened my eyes this morning and heard the rain pouring down, my mind was already working overtime.
Where does one go when one's world comes crashing in?
What does one do when one would give the world to feel the physical arms of God wrapped around one?
What does one do when God feels so very far away?
How does one shut out all the "what ifs" that run rampant through ones mind?
How does one deal with pain that goes deeper than ones own soul?
Where does one turn when ones world has been shaken to the core?
"One" must not rely on ones emotions, feelings or thoughts. "One" must rely on, stand firm on and depend on the promises of God.
He IS there, feelings or not.
He DOES love, thoughts or not.
He DOES save, what ifs or not.
THIS is what one does. It's not the easy route, but it's His route.
Until next time . . . may "ones" road get a few more of the "potholes" filled up.
Blessings to all. Susan and Monty

About Me
- Susan and Monty Scales
- We've spent years helping families rebuild their lives and homes after natural disasters. Those adventures have taken us to Mississippi, Louisiana, Indiana and Texas. God is now teaching me there are numerous definitions of "disaster." This new adventure of driving a school bus is taking me into a whole new world of "rebuilding." Stay tuned and see the hand of God in action! Jesus really does "love the little children; red, yellow, black and white . . ."
