Dear Wheeler Family,

I have been praying for all of you and will continue to pray for you. I know what it feels like to hit rock bottom. I have been at a point in my life where I felt defeated. I spent so much time crying out to God over everything. I found myself so focused on the reason why. Why? I was so frustrated because I couldn't understand it. So I found myself searching in God's Word and this verse stuck out to me in Psalms 55:16
"....But I call to God, and the Lord saves me. Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress, and He hears my voice."
God is love. And I know that is true. He reached down and lifted me up in my darkest hour. There's nothing I could ever do to make God love me any less. I found myself repeating that over and over in order to let go of my pain, so that I could be the person He wants me to be.
We will never understand why things happen, but we do understand love. Love has saved us. I hope my story helped you in some way and I will continue to pray for God's peace in each of your lives.
