 How are you?
Hi Wendy, I am checking in on you to see how you are? I know I feel like my heart is torn apart in million pieces and its been almost 4 weeks.... but you are not alone... I feel everything you do. It helps to write...... but the pain is no less.
Just want to drop a note to tell you I care and May the Lord help both of us thru this difficult time. I read something last night and wanted to share with you
Letter to God:
Heavenly Father,
My heart is breaking . It feels as I lost everything-- my hope, my courage, my joy, my life. The hurt presses on my chest until its difficult to breathe. Surely, the feeble ghostly voice that comes out of my mouth belongs to someone else. My legs seem quite unable to support my body. My friends gather around. They mean well, but their words seem hollow and empty. They can't possibily comprehend my loss. I feel cut off, isolated ruined.
I offer all that is left of me-- and that seems like very little-- to You as a sacrificial gift of praise. My Lord. Take my exhausted body, my numb emotions, my salty tears, and help me release the burden of my grief into Your waiting arms. Amen
Letter from God:
My Precious Child,
I see your tears, I hear your sobs-- those can be heard by human ears and those that cannot. Take my hand, and together we will walk through the hours, weeks and months ahead.
I promise to be there when you need Me the most and also when you need Me the least. That means that I will be there for you "always". I will never leave you. I am aware of every tortured breath, every painful regrets, every angery thought-- and I am here to comfort and uphold you.
Slowly but surely I will restore your hope and return the song to your heart. Though you can't believe it now-- one day you will wake up and find that your salty tears have been transformed to joy unspeakable and full of glory!
Hangin there.... Sandy |
