Memories

It is hard to believe that it has been ten years since my brother and sister died. Yet the memories of that day are very present and real. I thought I was doing good for today, and then it hit me tonight. All I can do is praise God for the blessings he has given me, where he has brought me, and what he is doing with me. I never imagined I would be where I am today, let alone doing what I am doing. Me a missionary, it was not my idea. I wanted to change pre-hospital care. To give a better chance of survival.

I think that the hardest part of today was looking at my son. Thinking about how it must feel to loose a child. What would I do if I lost him? Then as the Lord say's "come unto me and I will give you rest" that is what I did. I came to the arms of my loving Father. I cannot say that I would trade his life for someone else's, but I am so grateful for the Father that did. He cared enough for me, while I was yet a sinner.

Who do you turn to in your time of trouble? What do you turn to in your time of trouble? The love of Christ, is the only answer. 1 Peter 5:7 say's "cast all your cares on him, for he cares for you". He also say's "come unto me and I will give you rest".

Are you hurting from some past experience? Are you haunted by something you said or did? Christ can give us the peace that passes all understanding, that does not mean it will not hurt, but you can know that God has a purpose and that He will help you through.
