Dear Lord,
Today I’ve had enough.
My plate was already full.
Too full.
I’m really tired.
Really really tired.
I didn’t need the truck to stall on me.
(especially in 15 degree weather)
and
(especially in 15 degree weather)
and
(I’ve got alot of other pressures)
Leaving me sitting in the science class parking lot.
I really don’t want to spend money
On fixing the truck
When I’m spending money on fixing Samuel.
The budget is tight.
But, you already know that.
Even though I’m tired
And my plate is full
I’m still going to praise you.
Even though it hurts.
Because no matter what you are good.
I am reminded of your beauty
when I see the hardness in this world.
You are light.
And you are hope.
It’s hard to praise when one’s heart aches.
Yet, I know you saved my Samuel.
You have plans for me.
For my family.
You will provide abundantly.
I am your child.
You know me, you know my family
So with tear stained and tired cheeks
I praise you.
I lift my weary hands
And thank you.
Even in the midst of this.

YEAH! 😀 Bravo to you for your WONDERFUL attitude! I am with you there… Without a doubt, I know God works in mysterious ways, and that He allows things that we deem “bad” to happen – for a wise, good and kind purpose. I ABSOLUTELY KNOW THIS!!!
Blessings…
Corine 😀
Amen.
Just stopped by….read your post and wanted to let you know I’ll pray for you and your situation. I pulled a promise card with you in mind and this is what it says: “The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. II Chron. 16:9 On the back says, “We comprehend Him not, Yet earth and heaven tell, God sits as sovereign on the throne, and ruleth all things well.” Thinking of you.
love the optimism 🙂
Praying God’s peace, comfort, and restoration over you. In the midst of this storm may you feel His power surging through you and restoring your weary soul. You are precious in His sight!
We know that He holds the future. He already knows where all that money is going to come from, He already knows that your needs will be met. Praying for your heart.
Amein.
Praying for your weary,( yet ever joyful and praising) spirit. So sorry for all you have had to go through lately.
Praying for Samuel-he is so adorable.
Praising God that you have some answers now and can move forward-praying that the journey will become easier and lighter along the way.
Our journey’s different, but my heart aches with yours, my mind goes to your same worries, and my together, our hands are raised, even still. He is our all in all. He sees and he knows.
Praying God will fix the truck and provide for your every need. Praying that He brings healing to your sweet Samuel. Praying He gives you the strength you need to take the next step.
He is faithful.
May He lighten your load.
Much love,
Stacy
praying that the Lord lifts the burden off of your shoulders. you’ve been through so much lately and i’m so sorry. ::big hug::
Rachel,
I’m working on hooking you up with my friend (that is, if you would like) whose daughter, Sarah, was diagnosed with celiac at 2; Sarah’s now 21 and doing great. My friend is a very merciful, intercessory pray-er, and I think it would be very encouraging for you. I’m praying for you all.
Keep on practicing Philippians 4–You are great at it!
Blessings,
Wendy
I love your heart. Sending you big hugs. I am praying for you and for Samuel. You will get through this. God will bring you through. Praying for strength for you!
Praying you find strength in the Lord your God. He can do more than you can infinitely hope for or imagine.
Blessings,
Cherie
