God’s will is all that we need. He loves you, and so do we.

Bob and Sweet Betty

It has been just over two years since my husband passed away…I still struggle with the anger at times! I know the blessings that I’ve be given and He has lifted me…somedays it is just not that easy to deal with it all! I’m so glad He is gracious and His mercies are new every day!

I will say of the Lord,
You are My Refuge and my Fortress:
My God; In You will I trust.

Surely You will deliver me from
The snare of the fowler,
And from the deadly pestilence.

You shall cover me with Your feathers,
And under Your wings shall I trust.
Your truth shall be my shield and buckler.

I shall not be afraid of the terror by night;
Or of the arrow that flies by day;

Or of the pestilence that walks in darkness;
Or of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

A thousand may fall at my side,
And ten thousand at my right hand,
But it shall not come near me.

Only with my eyes will I behold and see the reward of the wicked.

Because I have made the Lord,
Who is my Refuge,
Even the Most High,
My dwelling place,

There shall no evil befall me,
Neither shall any evil come near my house.

For You shall give Your angels charge over me,
To keep me in all of my ways.

They shall bear me up on their hands,
Lest I dash my foot on a stone.

I shall tread upon the lion and adder;
The young lion and the serpent
I shall trample under foot.

Because I have set my love upon You,
Therefore You will deliver me.

You will set me on high,
Because I have known Your Name.

I shall call upon You,
And You will answer me.
You will be with me in trouble;
You will deliver me,
And honor me.

With long life You will satisfy me,
And show me Your salvation.

Our number one job as parents is to open our children’s eyes to God’s love and God’s ways. But first we have to learn about God’s love and God’s ways.

I recently wrote about me yelling at God. http://bit.ly/106DCS
I so understand and He does too. God forgives so quickly. His grace and judgment teach us. We know He loves us deeply when is patiently waits for us to “get it”

Bless you,
Robin

I read this post, popped over to another one, and then decided to come back. I usually don’t read other people’s comments but I did here– and saw Peggy’s comment.

It was exactly what I needed to hear. Exactly what I need to truly grasp!

My youngest son passed away almost a year ago. It has been hard, but God has given me much grace exactly when I needed it. I have even gotten over the fear of losing my other children and my husband (boy was that difficult). Because I know that no matter what, I will see them again in Heaven– when our real and best lives begin!

What I have not been able to let go of, however, is my fear FOR my husband and children. Would they be okay without me? I don’t want them to suffer heartache. I don’t want them to go through more pain. They need me, dangit!

But God will provide. He will provide for THEM. Even without me. Can I trust Him with them? Will I trust Him with them?

I have to. And I will.

Thank you for being a part of bringing me to that conclusion… to letting go of fear. Words fail me now so I guess I’ll end my novel of a comment.

I love your new tag line by the way.

I don’t remember where or when I read that this was the One you received at sHe Speaks but I knew that when you wrote on this…you’d GET it! But it’s so much more! I knew you had the “head” knowledge, now it needed to penetrate your heart.

When you started this with Abraham’s story on Moriah, that was perfect…but you left that place before really grasping this further(if you don’t mind me sharing).

I love that you got the connection & related the double WHAMMY experiences in your personal journey, but now make the link to Abraham & what God was asking of Him when He provided! You see, Abraham, father of great faith, needed to TRUST God with more than his own life, he needed to Trust God with the life of his only heir, special one to his heart. Can you see it now? Can you sense the mighty work God has called & is calling you to do in His Name & as a testimony of WHO HE IS! He is your Provider & that’s more than health & wealth! He PROVIDES a way out, He provides WISDOM, He provides GRACE, He even provided HIS ONLY SON as a sacrifice, so that we wouldn’t have to nor could we in many cases…and even if we were called to give up our own, it could never measure up or cover what His sacrifice ultimately does,…oh it would hurt deeply, we would sense & grieve the loss, we may have enough Hope & even faith to grow beyond the significant loss, but Our Father, as Abraham was ready…we need to be ready & step out or to the next step in FAITH. He will get you beyond today, beyond yourself, beyond your precious Emma, to the
REAL MIRACLE both of you have received.

I am always blessed by you & as you awaken & stay real to God’s Truth working & being completed in you!

Did we talk about where we both live at She Speaks? I think we’re in the same town. Maybe we can get together some time!
