God gives a peace that surpasses all understanding. Sometimes things aren't perfect or they do not turn out the way I think they are supposed to but lately I am able to experience joy in these events.
Having a child with Down Syndrome is nothing like I ever expected it would be. I am just so absorbed in all of the love and blessings that have been poured out upon our family from the gift of this precious little one. His siblings feel the same way and are always entertaining him with toys, hugs and even music.
I am learning to give thanks to God even when things do not go my way. By no merit of my own, only by His grace I have come to understand His love in the " less than perfect situations" in my life. When things look bad there is always something beautiful that God brings forth from it. I am becoming enlightened to think even more in the opposite direction of what the world says.
"Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven and all things shall be added unto thee." Down Syndrome has no power over God and I am seeing so much beauty in imperfection.
So as my ears hear the harmonica play I am savoring the tunes of the not so moody blues. The melody is sweet and the tunes are up beat even when times are a bit out of sync. Play that song baby and praise God in all things!!
He is so beautiful, Nori!
Thank you for sharing!
