Getting Baptized Today

When Brian died, I wasn't sure what would happen to my faith. I questioned God's goodness in a big way. I didn't understand why he chose to leave me completely alone. My family was on the other side of the country, I was never able to have children, my husband was dead and my best friend was MIA. I definitely didn't trust God's plan. I was terrified of God's plan.

I've been through the wringer in the past two years and I've learned a ton and I've experienced a relationship with God that I wouldn't have thought possible. I'm getting baptized at church this morning and I'm in a bit of a rush to get out the door, but I want to post this first.

This is not the end of a two-year story of grief. It is the renewal of a lifelong relationship with God.
