I often have days like the one you just described and in the end, the only hope that I have, as I lay my head down in exhaustion at night, is that God is faithful in His love for me. What a comfort! You and I are a lot alike--it sounds like we both judge our "value" by how helpful or productive we are or by how many things we have checked off of our "to do" lists (maybe not--but I certainly struggle with this!). Sometimes I think that the Lord allows my plans to be frustrated so that I will stop resting in my performance and take delight in Him and His performance on my behalf. So know this, sweet friend and sister, you are a beloved child of God! Your pain is especially important to Him. He loves you beyond words and is constantly at work in you to produce the image of His Son. Through Him, you will be able to love and serve your husband and children, and find deep wells of joy to comfort your sad heart. I'm praying for you!Abby Huttohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14056073914465107866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27028593.post-64376304778317539142008-10-09T23:00:00.000-04:002008-10-09T23:00:00.000-04:00I'm so sorry for your loss, but so glad your Grand...I'm so sorry for your loss, but so glad your Granddaddy was so loved!
