Excerpt from my contribution to Chasing Rainbows, “From Drizzle to Deluge”:
Until you understand what 2022 was like, you’ll see little sense in me calling 2019-2021 my “drizzle” years. In 2019 alone, we—my (then) 87-year-old mother, my husband Billy, and I—endured two cancer diagnoses, one undiagnosed heart problem, a lost retirement application, a major move during the Covid lockdown, and a frustrating, frightening time of inability to find doctors, get treatment, and refill prescriptions. The years 2020-2021 brought their own little horrors, and sometimes drizzle turned to rain. But those three damp years starting in 2019 reminded me of how faithful and loving God is. And how it’s best to say, “Yes, Father,” and do as He instructs. To do otherwise would be foolish.
Besides, those years increased my faith and set the foundation of trust for when the deluge hit.
