My blog titles rolling around in my head tonight were of Easter, Emma's first wiggly-ready-to-fall-out tooth, our seedlings, my latest cooking experiment....
Then you hear of the pain of a friend, and everything fades to gray.
I've known pain, a deep pain. But, as a mother, my heart doesn't quite grasp the depth of the pain felt tonight...It seems to shut off before I can imagine it too far.
Thankfully, it's not up to me to know exactly what's felt, but to fall into the arms of my Maker tonight and be reminded of His plan, as I pray the very same for my friend. For her to feel His perfect knowledge and love. Agape love, that's supernatural. A love where every child has a plan and purpose and does not escape the sight of the Father. Every child, including those yet to be born.
"Lord, you are mighty and worthy of all my praise. I ask that you remind this dear, special family of your undying love for them, of the peace you offer them, the plans you have for them. Help them to trust and follow even when you ask things of us we can't understand this side of Heaven. May you show your faithfulness and mercy, and be a very real help to them right now. I love you Lord, In Jesus' name, Amen."
