The Eye of the Storm

"I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith..." —Ephesians 3:16

Today there is a peace felt like no other I may have ever experienced.  An external peace, if you will.
Today, Jimmy (my father with dementia) is content moving papers around upstairs while my 5 month old is sleeping like a 'baby'  and my husband just went down for a morning nap as well.
Peace is covering this house.
Interestingly enough, however, a storm of strong winds rage just outside these four walls. We are in a windchill advisory... and the shutters are literally rattling.
If this is the eye of the storm that my family is currently in... then this gives me great encouragement, great hope and possibly a great revelation.
Our storm began about 6 weeks ago when my husband drove himself to the Emergency room while on his way to work, early one morning.
They released him a few hours later and he came home early to tell me that he had gone in.
I won't get into the details of his diagnosis, only that it surely has been a whirlwind of doctor appointments, drugs and detailed lists of what to do and not to do, what to eat and not to eat... etc. 
If today is in fact, the eye of this storm then mathematically speaking... one could suggest that we've got about 6 weeks to go! Okay... I know this sounds a bit wild to attempt to deduce... but if it's a revelation from God, than Glory to Him for that. If it's not, than I continue to Wait with Joy and Hope, trusting in Him through it all. Amen.
