Exhaustion.
Well, it's been one of those days. Playing with kids, babysitting, and going to important meetings. I am pretty much brain-dead, so please excuse this post's lack of content.
I wanted to ask you all to pray for my grandpa. He's going to have open-heart surgery tomorrow because he has 90% blockage in one artery. It's a good thing they caught it now, and I'm so glad they did. He's out of state, which is hard because I want to be with him, but he's in good hands - God's hands. And it's not over yet.
I called him on the phone, literally crying my eyes out, and he goes, "Why are you crying? I'm not dead yet! Don't throw flowers on my grave when I'm not dead yet!"
Things were better after that. It was so good to hear his voice.
God told me, "it's not over." Which is amazing because this is one of my absolute favorite songs.
I remember all those nights
Your voice would shake from
The tears you cried
What's the meaning of this life?
Guilt can bring you to your knees
You can't escape the memories
When shame is all you feel inside
Don't look back
(Don't look back)
Leave what's broken in
The past, take my hand
(Take my hand)
And understand
It's not over
The best is yet to come
For us
Come for us
Night has faded
A brand new day has come
For us
Come for us
A million miles from
Where we've been
Hope's a road that has no end
I pray to God that we would make it through
Forgiveness always finds a way
A loving love that fears no pain
Just take a look at me and you
Don't give up
(Don't give up)
We've only just begun
I believe
I believe
I believe
It's not over
The best is yet to come
For us
Come for us
Night has faded
A brand new day has come
For us
Come for us
It's not over
The best is yet to come
For us
Come for us
It's not over
The best is yet to come
For us
Come for us
Night has faded
A brand new day has come
For us
Come for us

My dear sweet friend. You comforted me when I was going through a tough time and now it's my turn. I don't have anything to say that will ease the pain, but know that Jesus is with you and loves you enough to die. He will never leave you or forsake you.
ReplyDeleteI know exactly how hard it is, but know that I'm praying for you and your family.
Love & Hugs, NW sister,
