After a battle-scared day with attorneys, followed by a completely sleepless night yet one spent in the company of God and His word, I started the day with an awesome peace. Having asked Him over the night to explain why things were going so wrong and why I felt so attacked, He kept reassuring me it would all work out for my best.

Twenty seven years of trusting Him have let me know if He says it He means it!

I  went through the day reassuring my friends that however unfair it appeared, we could not see it the way God was seeing it and we had to try. I  was able to explain that even losing everything was truly a blessing and a gift from the Lord and they could see that I believed that, and I did.

In the late afternoon my attorney called me to come in where he explained how they had worked it out on my behalf. They had taken responsibility for leaving me at risk and not noticing the red flag when it appeared and they were stepping up to the plate to make amends. The result was far better than I could have hoped for, truly God had made a way where there was none.

As I look back on all the things I have lost, or that I perceived to have lost, and see that they were a gain for God, not only in His relationship with me, but in the lives of so many others our stories have affected. I would not change a single outcome if I was offered a do-over! The healing He has brought about through all of this in my soul is overwhelming. I am grateful beyond reason. As one friend said, “you were Daniel in the lions den, but God was with you!” And so He was.

You may take away all my worldly goods, even those that may be in my future, and I will still be one of the richest women on earth, and I saw that proven again today, beyond a shadow of a doubt! Lawyers don’t ante up for someone who could hardly afford to sue them for negligence. But mine did today and I was impressed and awed that they had heard God as well and as clearly as I did and done the right thing. It has altered my experience of attorneys forever!
