The song below is called “It Is Well”. There is a phrase that says “Through it all, through it all, my eyes are on You. Through it all, through it all it is well, it is well with me.”  No matter what, I know God is God.

Like I said, I’m hopeful, but trying my best to guard my kids hearts as well as my own heart, and stand firm on boundaries for us all. It’s hard and at times frustrating but very needed!  I...
