I set out this morning on a 7 hour drive. I was discouraged and had an anxious heart. Unfortunately my travel wasn't for pleasure, I was driving go my hometown to visit my mom who has been hospitalized since Sunday. A scary diagnosis of meningitis, Encephalitis, and sepsis has turned into a hopeful prognosis; however she's not out of the woods.
Needless to say I was dreading listening to music or an audiobook bc honestly I just wanted silence to process my emotions/pray. I wanted to dig into some encouraging scriptures but obviously couldn't while driving so I opened up Genesis on my Bible app and pushed play. I got all the way through Genrsis, and while I probably would not have thought to go there for encouragemeng, one of the first verses to catch my attention was after God was finished with the Creation, He looked over everything and said "good, so very good" (MSG) I can only think that is what this week has been in the midst of a very scary few dsts- good doctors, good prognosis, and a Great God behind it all!
