June was a rough month. With reminders around every corner of what wasn't going to be, it was not an easy month to get through. But July brought healing. Reminders of miracles and reasons to trust from a God that loves me. This particular night (pictured below) was a huge part of that healing. The healing didn't come from the lantern but in a little boy earnestly closing his eyes and asking Jesus to let him see His face. The healing didn't come from the images taken that night but from the nearness of God and grace He pours out on us. I had no intention of ever sharing these images but they are such a strong reminder of God's grace, love and faithfulness that I thought them too good not to share. Life will never be perfect this side of heaven but God's grace and love for us is never-ending and we can trust in that.
(Thank you to my lovely friend Sara at Like a Fox Photography for joining us and capturing these special images.)
Welcome to the Hickstionary, a landing spot for all things H family.
I'm Heidi. He's Rusty. And together we have our beautiful babe, Beckett and a furry menace, Dakota.
I mostly use this space to brag about how awesome the kid is, whine about how naughty the dog is & share an occasional deep thought.
Thanks for hanging out with us as we figure out this [blessed] life!
