I miss this freckled face boy every day...and my heart aches as he would have turned 17 on March 23rd Warren went to heaven on…
If I'm honest...I am relieved the "Holidays" are coming to a close. I don't hate Thanksgiving or Christmas, the festivities, and all that goes with…

∞It's been almost 2 years, and I'm not sure if it seems like yesterday or the longest 2 years of my life..Both, maybe. But One thing remains, our Hope is Jesus. He is the Light of the world and because of this Promise, we will RISE UP and be thankful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ..and because of The Gospel we KNOW that Warren is ALIVE and we will see him again...
Missing my boy will always be part of who I am, what I do, what I feel...But it isn't without hope that I miss Warren. I miss Warren knowing One Day I will see him again!! I am thankful for that promise. I love you Warren Austin!!
There is so much to share, as God continues to speak to my heart and transform me from who I was, to who He wants me to be. I am so thankful that this was not just an event, but rather a spring board for MORE of Jesus in my life.
Leaving the house where Warren last lived , packing up his things...putting them in tubs so fearful we were leaving him behind... was painful for my still very tender heart. But as I take the time to look back at how graciously God provided ~ His mercies NEW every morning , I am strengthened once again to take a step of faith forward.
It's not about me...or Warren. It's much bigger! I'm trusting, still... that God is working, that HE loves me and that He is Good!!
"It is my privilege and my purpose to share the hope and joy of Jesus!" ~Louie Giglio (Passion 2016)
As the 24th nears I feel VERY sad...but I also feel VERY held. This is something else that doesn't really make sense. Since Sunday (11-1) there has been an incredible peace that has covered us in a way that I just can't explain. What's complicated about this peace, is that it's not what you might imagine.
Today I will believe with confidence, that because of His grace, I have been declared righteous and will inherit eternal life.(Titus 3:7) I will look forward with hope to that wonderful day when the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ will be revealed!(Titus 2:13)
