I wish I could take away your pain, grief, lonliness, confusion, (perhaps anger) numbness, but I know I can't. I wish I could fix the agony you are enduring at this very moment of time (but I know I can't). But this one thing I believe with all my heart that we have a Father very near to us who wants you to lean your weary heart upon his breast. He promises to place every tear of ours into his tear bottle and promises to carry us when we no longer have the strength to walk or carry ourself. The poem FootPrints in the Sand is about a person who no longer has strength to carry on........it is then the Father in his great mercy and love reaches down and places his everlasting arms around them and picks him/her up and carries them thru their journey of grief. There is a force & strength so much greater than ourselves. As I close I lift your name in prayer at this moment asking our Father to please breath his love and grace into your life and give you strength and grace to place one foot in front of the other and reach out of your pain and to heal your heart and soul.

He will always be with you and never let you go if you ask and believe.

In His Love.........Susan

There are no words the may seem right just cry, pray and Thank God that you did have a chance to experience the beauty of Love. That love will alway have a place in you heart forever. Write me any time to vent, talk, or cry.
