Peace, that is what I yearn for. It is what I believe God for, His peace, that passes all understanding. Despite what I see & feel; despite the circumstances. I won't let go of Jesus & His peace. I can't afford to. You see today, I went to another funeral. This week I mourned & cried with many of the people I did this with a month ago. My aunt, dad's youngest sister (#7 out of 8 children) passed away Tuesday morning. 47 years old. Mother of two young adults. Sister, daughter, aunt, friend. The shock of an elderly mother that has lost her second child in one month. Siblings reeling from the pain. My mother & I trying to heal from the loss of my dad thrown right back to step one, but mourning also now because others are now so deeply touched by the pain we have experienced. Unbelievable. Incomprehensible.
You may or may not understand this, but I still believe with all my heart that God is good. He does not take from us. Sickness & death are the devil's business. God heals our broken hearts and promises us an eternity free from this pain with Him. And He also knows we get sad and beaten down and even lose our hope. He understands. He knows that right now, I am fighting moment by moment to maintain His peace....

My heart breaks for you--- Never stop praying...God's got a plan all figured out.
I am so sorry Bonnie! You are right, God is good! We will never be able to comprehend why thing happen. But we need to remember God is in control. He uses things in our lives to make us stronger, mold us into the Christian he wants us to be. Sometime I'd love to tell you mine and Matt's testamony. I will be praying for you and your family. Matt went through something similar a few years ago, his Mom died of cancer in April 02, then his Dad in July 03. Blessings and keep your eyes lifed up!
