3's

Have you ever heard the saying that death comes in threes? Well for me it's not death it's someone else's pregnancy news. The great news that for me is so illusive. In the last 2 days I have heard 3 peoples great news. 1 girl kept going on about how perfect her life is, saying i wanted to be married by 25, have my first child by 26, have my second child by 29 and be pregnant in August, all of which have happened. I just thought to myself glad your life has worked out perfectly because mine sure hasn't.

Oh Summer, how I wish I could take away your pain. I love you so much and I am lifting you up daily in my prayers. I don't know the answer but I do know that God loves you and He has a marvelous plan for you and Josh. Greater than we can even imagine and I am praising Him for what He is going to do!!! I also know that that does not make it any easier for you at this moment. Love MOM

oh how insensitive we are until we experience a trial in that area. know that i haven't quit praying and your life is part of God's perfect plan...which is not perfect in the way we all wish it would be for you but it is a beautiful picture in the end no matter how much it seems out of whack through the trials...preachin' to myself on that one too! love in Christ

i have no idea why some people seem to get everything just like they want it and some don't. but we (and i'm preaching to myself here too) just need to hold tight to God and know that His plan is perfect.

oh and i've found avoiding such people really is the best thing. she probably didn't mean to be so insensitive but you can't put yourself through that pain on purpose.

I know your situation is completely different but there are days that I thank God that my life hasn't gone as I had planned it. I know you don't see this now but you and Josh do some GREAT things that are fun and exciting and some people are jealous that you get to experience such a life. Like I told Melissa the other night, I think some of these things are happening just to lead up to something great ... I can always hope :)

I love comment by tleaf10. There is truth and wisdom in her remarks. "I had fainted unless I had believed to see the GOODNESS of the Lord in the land of the living. LOVE YOU SO MUCH. You are indeed SPECIAL. Wait on the Lord. ma

SO many great comments were made that took the words right out of my mouth! "Bigger things" ARE taking place. Its hard to see but they are. I have to keep reminding myself that everything happens for a reason but im screaming inside for you when you hurt.
I love you & Miss you!

Summer,
I'm sorry you are hurting. That it's dark for you right now. I pray God gives you a little seed of hope to keep you going until you see His answers. Cheri
