breaking the hush

It’s hard to believe that it was only two months ago that I was sitting in this same bunk, weeping, writing a blog full of hopelessness, and despair. A lot of times, when we mention miracles, what comes to mind is people leaping from wheel chairs or deaf ears and blind eyes being opened. Maybe even finding a check in the mail for the exact amount of the bills for the month. We tend to focus on our physical circumstances and say, “God, heal my legs, I want to walk’ or, ‘Lord, teach me how to budget, let me be wise in my spending, and a good steward of what you have given me, that you can trust me with more.”

You see, two months ago, I was focused on my physical circumstance. I was saying, “Why me God, where are Your promises? Show me the miracles you promised and let me walk over crumbled walls a free man.” Well, God has worked a miracle in my life. Have my physical circumstances changed? No, but in the past two months, God has restored my hope and turned my despair into praise. He has done a deep, inner healing, unexplainable by the English vocabulary. You see, walls have crumbled! Physically? No, but walls just the same, and I am walking over them a free man!

Breaking the Hush,
