"Do not fear for I am with you, do not be dismayed for I am your God, I will strengthen you and help you, I will uphold you in my righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10. I know when I have faced scary times and painful times, picturing the Lord holding me in his arms, loving me, has given me comfort. I am praying for you tonight.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02983747923969997503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7805980609241207187.post-64480031783835109102008-10-16T20:16:00.000-04:002008-10-16T20:16:00.000-04:00I've had a difficult time with this question at ti...I've had a difficult time with this question at times.

To most people it is just a perfunctory greeting that makes them look nice and caring, without having to go to much depth or compassion. If I know the person who is asking, I let them in on my feelings. If I don't know them well enough to bare my soul, they get the ubiquitous "Fine, thank you."<BR/><BR/>I don't know what you are facing right now. But I can feel the pain in your words. You are in my prayers. It seems like so little, but it is all I have to give.<BR/><BR/>Hold on to those around you who really care. Don't push them away in an effort to escape the pain. And find someone who knows EXACTLY what it feels like to go through what you are going through. I wish I had done that when I had a miscarriage. But God was gracious and allowed me to be that support person for my friend when she miscarried recently. Sharing grief makes it less suffocating.<BR/><BR/>Hold onto Jesus. He will never let you down or abandon you. And don't be afraid to feel your emotions with Him either. He can handle our anger or sorrow. He created those emotions. I have yelled at and raged against Him on more than one occasion and He hasn't struck me with a bolt of lightning yet :)He can even handle silence and distrust. Yes, I admit that I distrusted Him when I went through my miscarriage. The "Why me" and "How could You let this happen to me?!?" surfaced frequently. He was still there to catch every tear that fell from my broken heart.<BR/><BR/>This comment wasn't meant to be melancholy..I fear that it has taken on more of a lecturesome tone. Please don't take it that way. Take it as advice from a friend that you haven't met face to face who has faced grief, perhaps in a different form, and has come out on the other side by holding onto Him.Precision Quality Laserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02304034383943750446noreply@blogger.com
