I've always thought that I had to be strong. Strong in overcoming obstacles. Strong in enduring life's difficulties. I guess there's some truth to that until I'm reminded that when I am weak, He is strong.

I dont always have to have all the answers, have to have all the plans figured out. Sometimes, it's best to let life ride a little.

I recently wrote about my dear sister's and 2-month old new nephew's life struggles - Life with CCHS (Ondine's Curse). It sure pales in comparison to the "real estate fires" that I have to put out on a daily basis.

I'm sorry, but nothing get me quite jumpy anymore. When I begin to look at life in perspective, alot of things seem to fall in its right place.

You really get to see a strength of a person until life circumstances have to kick in. I do feel horrible that my dear sister has to find out this way. But I also know, what cant kill her, will only make her stronger.

 


Scripture of the Week:

That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

2 Corinthians 12:10

Hi Loreena,

This post reminds me of the Father's promise to Paul when he prayed three times for the thorn to be removed.  God's grace is our sufficiency in every trial, every temptation, every wrong, and every right.  As believers' our process and path to success is always firmly grounded in Christ.

Best of success to you always and prayers for your sister and her family!

It's good for me to hear these words.  I know so many that are dealt different things in life.  In any event....all you can do is deal.  Be strong....Footprints in the sand.....when you only saw one set of footprints it was then that he carried you!

Once in a while it is therapeutic to step back and put things into proper perspective. Like you, I seem to need a "reality check" of real importance to guide back to putting things into perspective.
