Flipping the Upside-Down


God has been working on my heart this week as we send both boys to Manhattan and begin this exciting new phase of our lives.  And as I cleaned the basement bathroom knowing this time it would stay clean for a while, God kept giving me these words to make sense of this transition.  I love how He sees a small town mama’s heart. ❤️

Fullness in the empty.
Joy when we are sad.
A whisper in the quiet.
God can flip the upside down. 

A light in the shadows.
An oasis in the desert.
The calm in the storm.
God can flip the upside down. 

The order in the chaos.
The color in the gray.
The laughter in the tears.
God can flip the upside down.  

The comfort in the pain.
An assurance when in doubt.
Hope when all seems not.
God can flip the upside down.
