God's timing is so strange. A friend messaged me just last night to ask me some questions about how I "made it through" menopause, and it dawned on me as I read your post that we both had similar take-aways. In retrospect, I didn't even know what had hit me until I came out on the other side. Sometimes, there's just no way to think our way through a season, so we have to rely on God's sovereign goodness and receive each day as it comes to us.
So true, Michele. I keep coming back to the idea that God knows what we need and graciously provides it, even when it's not something we would have ever chosen for ourselves. It's a hard truth, but also one I find to be very comforting.

Lois, do you know how glad I am to see you writing here?! You made my day, girl.
Aw, Linda ... your encouragement is a blessing. :-)
