May 2, 1676 In the Year of Our Lord

I am overjoyed. I am almost to be returned home! I have quit the Indians and tomorrow will reunite with my husband in Boston. God is good. I lived among the most savage of beings and prayed daily for deliverance and His intervention to redeem me. He does not forget those He loves. I am full of awe for the love and faithfulness of God. I pray that I can share my story with all those who would hear; to express how , "though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death..even there your hand will guide me." (Psalm 23)
With this joy however, comes sorrow. I know not of my children and whether they are even still alive. I have not heard tell of either of them in quite a while and it will be more than difficult to be reunited to Joseph and not hear of them.
Oh God, thank you for this blessing. You are more than good. There is nothing I have that You have not given to me. I ask that You would bring home my children as well. Be with them where ever they are.
