We had just got out of the ICU from a 2 week respiratory visit. And we got the call that our Uncle James had died. I told my aunt we would be there if it was in God&#8217;s will. And four days later surrounded by people at Thanksgiving I read this verse. I didn&#8217;t know it then, but this verse would be so pivotal to me for the past two months with\u00a0Mac&#8217;s recovery post Transplant. Many times I looked at the beautiful hills of Pittsburgh in tears telling God we were faithful even if my brain and the physical<br>\u00a0said otherwise. Returning to Columbia, Tennessee last Monday. This verse has repeatedly flown through my head as I look at these beautiful hills that we love so incredibly much. What a gift it is to be home.
