Quick, the baby just went to sleep and the family hasn't walked in from church yet.
I've been thinking about you for hours now. Thinking about what I would tell you if I could talk as easily as I write.
I know right now you are struggling. I would love to take that struggle from you and let you have all the blessing with none of the pain. I would love to do that but I don't think it works that way.
You know me. You know how chaotic my mind gets. You've seen me high and low. So I'm going to just lay aside all of my disguises and just for one minute offer you encouragement.
It will be ok. I don't know how it will be ok but I know it will. You see, you're not just my friend. You're my sister. Our Father is the King of the Universe. He isn't a distant King that you have to make an appointment months in advance to see. He is your Father and He loves you. He loves you like you are His favorite daughter. Not only is He the all powerful King of the Universe, He is the Creator of the Universe. He didn't just create us and then leave. He has waited and loved each of His creations all the way up to now, to YOU.
He loves you and He wants the best for you. We cannot understand how each day that we have to, I mean get to, trudge through leads to the best but we don't have to understand. We just have to know that He is the giver of all good things.
I am praying for you. I'm praying every hour that everything turns out the way we would have it turn out. But I'm also praying that His will be done because we are short sighted. He alone knows what is best.
Oops, I hear the car door and the squeals of the girls. I love you. We'll walk through this together.
Good night.
