I read this excerpt the other day and I can't find where I found it but I love it. During the holidays there are many hurting people who have lost loved ones and this time of year reminds them of them of course. Enjoy the reading and I hope you are blessed by this time of year even in your pain and void you can grasp onto the good, using the pain and the memories for your strength. Vicki
"The Dr asked me the other day, "How many times have you begged the Lord to take her pain & give it to you instead?" I told him ALL THE TIME! His response was well the Lord is telling you that is what he is doing, he is taking the pain away from Autumn from her disease letting her run, jump, laugh, play, be happy & healthy & he is giving me the pain. I am going to have the pain of hurting, crying, feeling empty, angry, confused, sad, & just not complete. So now he has taken her disease & pain away from her & now is giving to me. That hit me pretty hard because I believe & understand what he is saying. Even though this is hurting & killing my family & I, I will never give up & I will live the life she would want me to live so i can see her, hold her, & never put her down again one day when the Lord decides it is MY time.
