I waited patiently.
When I was in the horrible pit.
He heard my cry, and brought me out.
And set my feet upon a rock.
And put a new song in my heart.

Months ago, the Holy Spirit said to me.
"Are you willing to sit in the horrible pit for awhile, so that you can have a new song in your heart?"

This was also many months after the HS started asking me a disquieting question. He would ask, "Do you trust me?"

If you think that being in the high places, and riding high means that you are in the will of God, you might be sadly mistaken.

Sometimes we have to sit in the horrible pit.
God still loves us, and has not abandoned us there.

After the time, that the Holy Spirit asked me if I trusted him, a lot of things happened.
Things that I did not like.
My husband lost his job.
He ended up in the hospital with a colostomy and cancer diagnosis.
The HS knew this would happen.

I would like to say that the story ended up with a miracle.
But you see I can't say that yet, since I am still in the middle of the story.

I appreciate the Holy Spirit preparing me.

I do trust Him.

I want to add that I experienced some wonderful things in the process of what happened.
When I asked for prayer, I had a chance to experience "the peace that passes all understanding".
I described it as palpable.
It was felt in my soul, and it does pass understanding.
