I received a much-prayed-for answer to prayer today. Someone I love very much needed to see the kindness of God shown in specific ways. That had been my prayer for the last year. Today, a specific recognition award was given to this loved one.
When the news came through, I rejoiced with tears of joy. My kids laughed at me, "Mom's crying," they commented, as if surprised that I would cry over the award. That's okay; they can't understand. They were all sound asleep those many early mornings that I spent praying. The joyful, awaited answer to prayer had not come at a cost to them, nor is their love for this deserving individual as intense as mine.

I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. [Psalm 27:13]
