...Your writing struck a cord with me this evening. <br />I remember when Mama was with us, being in Target one evening. It just seemed so wrong to watch people around me going through their normal routines when my life felt so chaotic. I wanted to scream, "Just stop! How can all of you go on about your normal life when mine feels so wrong right now?". Ordinary things like grocery shopping just seemed so wrong and out of place.<br />Of course, now I realize that is just part of the Lord's mercy in our lives. He has built these things into our lives and they keep us from being stagnant- from sitting still and dwelling on those things we really can't do anything about.<br />The Lord wants us to trust on Him, anyway- not on our own strength. I am so guilty of that sometimes. I feel weak and I feel like I'm never going to make it through my circumstance. In reality, it was never about me anyway. It was *always* about Him. <br />I'm praying for you, my sweet friend. I pray the Lord comforts your heart today. I pray you will find healing. I hope it is pretty there today. Maybe you can go outside and breathe in fresh air and some sun? I know this season is so hard. When you feel that sun's warmth, close your eyes...I'm sending you a virtual hug. :D<br /><br />Can we talk shoes? I'm having an awful time finding shoes that won't hurt my feet. What did you settle on? I'm finding it's wise to ALWAYS check those online prices. I wish I had known that sooner- it sure would have saved me some money.
