Guest guest Posted August 20, 2002 Report Share Posted August 20, 2002 That was such a sweet and touching email. Thanks for sharing that with us.

I know what it is to feel that you whole world is shaking and that there is nothing solid you can put your feet on. I know what it is to go through a major life changing situation and feel trapped becaause there isn't enough money to help deal with the few things about it you can control. During the darkest days of my life when my mother was dying in Florida I could not go to her and say goodbye. During what should have been the happiest times in my life, the birth of a new baby, I could not seem to fully enjoy them because I was worried about not having enough to provide for my children. I'd long for a fresh boquet of flower but knowing even that was an impossibility. I know what it is to see your strong husband reduced to jello because he can not provide for his family. I also know what it is to see him walk with his head held high and a bounce in his step and wearing a new pair of jeans for the first time in years because he finally go a job. There is a song I am not sure of the name but the some of the words are " step by step I lead you, and I will follow you all of my days " . When my mother was dying or had died and my dad took his life 6 weeks later I hung onto those words with every I had. They were my only comfort. I hoped with everything inside of me that God would truly lead me because I wasn't sure which way was up let alone know about any decisions or problems I had to face. It has been ten years now and I can tell you this. God is truly faithful. For the last three years has worked the same job. The first 8 months through Manpower and then was hired in. We are not out of the woods yet financially but we are working on it. I said all that I said to tell you this. There is hope. You may not be able to see a little flame of hope but look closely it is there. The longer you look at it the bigger it will grow. Then before you know it you will be oppotomistic about your situation even thou when you look around things are still the same. Then things WILL start changing for the better. God is our refuge and strength and a very present help in time of trouble. He is a God of Great comfort and I pray that he would shower it on your family right now. I pray that you would be able to just take a deep breath and realize that what you are going through is all temporary. Joy does really come in the morning. I know it is hard right now with everything you are have been through latey but try to relax and enjoy Gabby's birth. Remember you are truly blessed by God to have this precious life join your family. Hugs, Dorene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
