After just
losing our second child to miscarriage since getting married May 30, 2015, God
has given us a powerful strength and peace within that we have never
experienced before. It feels like a deep well and the Comforter keeps drawing
from it and putting the cup to our lips to drink. While we are sad and know
some hard days are still to come, we are trusting in God because His plan for
us has far surpassed any hope or dream we ever had for ourselves.
My heart spilled out this poem last night when sleep would not come...
My heart spilled out this poem last night when sleep would not come...
That precious life You loaned us,
For just a short sweet while
Brought our hearts such happiness and filled us with a
smile.
You heard us daily pray for baby's
Body mind and soul
You heard us say "we dedicate this child to You,
Lord".
Then You'd hear us laugh and talk and dream of one day
meeting
That miracle You loaned us,
For just a short sweet while.
We thought that we were ready,
This little child to have
But in Your will was planned for us
A slightly different path.
So You gave us strength to stand
And bravely bear this trial
And promised that Your best for us has not yet been
revealed.
So thank You, Lord, for loving us and we know all the
while
We'll meet You and that precious life
In just a short sweet while.
Trust is
something that has never come easy for me. As a matter of fact, I'm a
suspicious person by nature. But God, in His great love, is teaching me that
love conquers all. And gaining back my trust began with Him. He is the great Teacher
and the Changer of lives. He proves Himself over and over again, so trust in
Him, lean on Him and love Him.
God bless
you and draw you close to Him.
Love,
Joan
