In early December on a sunny day i got a bit of news i had been waiting for. I had been praying to God feverishly for one specific thing in the darkness of the morning hours every day and in early December 2019 God answered my prayer. My sweet friend was blessed with a healthy baby girl. I sat in the rocking chair for many hours that day with the dogs beside me, staring at the window curtains and listening to the hum of the a/c wall unit. I had a smile on my face. My soul was at peace. I was in a rare mood of joy. One thought reverberated through the chambers of my mind, “God is good.”
