Love Against The Tides-Chapter Twenty
Safe Place
Chapter Twenty
1 God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
3 though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.
Psalm 46:1–3 N.I.V
Kevin saw Kelsea’s sadness, her pain, and he knew she was grieving all she had lost and all she never really had.
Kevin gently pulled Kelsea closer to him, wanting to comfort her, to take her pain away. He could still hear the doctors words, the realization of what they meant. Kelsea was going to need help, and he would be there to help her. What a gift.
”Kevin, this isn’t what I imagined when we made our wedding vows, I don’t want to be your burden.“
”Kelsea, you coukd never be a burden to me. We are in this together. I can’t pretend to understand what you are going through, but I’m going to be here for you.“
Kelsea nodded, tears streaming down her cheeks, which Kevin wiped away with gentle care.
“I’m afraid.”. Now that I’m home, I’m more aware of the limits I have. It’s like I’m an infant.”
