There are...I agree whole-heartedly with this post. There are very real physical and emotional scars left in many situations. And you lose pieces of yourself along the way sometimes.<br /><br />I remember when my sister-in-law was going through a particularly difficult time and someone said to her, "God never gives us more than we can handle." And her response was, "You mean if I was a weaker person I'd have an easier life? Then I wish I was a weaker person!"<br /><br />I think many times in our lives we are thrown into situations that are far beyond our capacity to handle, and it is only the Grace of God that sees us through.<br /><br />Love and Prayers,<br />EileenEileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679894230965874631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7638818308450544491.post-86282712979143384372012-01-15T18:46:01.528-07:002012-01-15T18:46:01.528-07:00Hi Tamara.

I don't know why, but I did. I know that you know that I have always wanted to get involved in missions....and won't let my age stop me. Our pastor (and these young missionaries) told us that even if we couldn't/didn't go physically, our prayers for them are coveted. I can do that, but you know that I want to do more. <br /> Life's road is paved with not only the sweetest and most endearing moments, but it is also paved with heartaches and pain. I am thankful that God heals the brokenhearted. Thank you so much for sharing your blog with us. <br />Love to you my friend,<br />JackieJackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214796594702277709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7638818308450544491.post-5919534301062117182012-01-15T13:23:52.841-07:002012-01-15T13:23:52.841-07:00I agree with you Tamara.

It sometimes changes a part of us that we'll never get back.<br />There is always comfort to be found in Psalms.<br />Love Di ♥Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429812875586479256noreply@blogger.com
