Ps
30:5b (NIV) . . . weeping may remain for a night,
but
rejoicing comes in the morning.
NOTE: Lord, when
will it be morning? The night seems so long and so lonely. You promise to meet
our every need. Phil 4:19 "And my God will meet all your needs according
to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus." Lord you promise, I want to claim
this promise for my life and may family. When I go to work, please take care of
my family. Give Sharon the strength she needs to take care of both Luke and
Sarah. Watch over Luke, help him to do better breathing and eating. Lord we
need some peace; we need some joy once again in our lives. In Jesus' name,
Amen.
((TODAY, 12 Jul
2012: The night did seem so long back then. I'm not sure when it did end. Even
three years later, after a key surgery that was finally successful, it was not
completely ended. The aches inside continued to turn my stomach every time
something new would occur. I suppose the most difficult thing to understand is
perseverance, because you really don't think you can take it any longer, and it
goes longer. In the military special forces, training takes you to your limit
and then one step beyond what you think you can endure. I never really thought
of God teaching perseverance that way, but looking back that is what happened.
Every time we thought we were at the end of the rope, God would push us out a
little farther. And somehow, there was always just a little bit of rope left.))
