So, Gods timing is always best. But to be honest it certainly doesnt feel that way! I mean, I have been having a great three days or so! Super happy! Actually eating! Getting seconds! I thought one of my friends was gonna fall over when I got up to get more food!!!! Then, tonight (earlier tonight that is...} thing after thing just kept hitting our small city front group! It was ridiculous! Well, two of my friends broke up. So, I felt bad for both of them, and ended up talking to both of them. Then, another couple found out that a family from back home had gotten into a car accident and four out of five family members had died. The one who survived was away at college. I cannot even imagine how that girl is feeling right now. please, I ask that you join me in praying for her, because that has got to be the worst feeling on this planet. And one of my friends, she is really in a crummy mood because about one year ago one of her best friends died in a car accident. So when she heard news about this other couples friends... I thought she was going to start bawling.... I felt awful for her. So she is not doing well from that. I can honestly say that tonight... timing seemed to suck. I was thinking, *Why on earth are all these things happening all at once!* Whats the point of all of this! Between this weekend and last weekend... oy! I know we should trust God through all things and with all things... but on nights like these, where you just cant sleep because your mind is swirling out of control with questions and wonderments... you just cant help wondering... what is Gods plan. Why. Just why. My heart hurts for the girl who lost her family. My heart hurts for the girl who lost her closest friend a year ago. My heart hurts for the couple who broke up. My heart just hurts tonight. And I sometimes wonder, does Gods heart hurt like ours do... Wouldnt it hurt more than ours, because he created us, he knows more about our feelings than we do. Tonight I am not going to ask a question. I think instead I am going to ask for a favor. Will you please join me in prayer for the people who have been hurting today. The ones who have cried out to God. The ones who can say that today has been a not-so-great day. I just ask that you pray with me that God will give them peace through the night, and that God will dry their tears, hold them in his arms and whisper that he is going to take care of them and carry them through these trials. I also pray that if you, my dear reader, are having a not-so-good day too that God will comfort you as well. Goodnight, and in sleep in Gods amazing and wonderful peace.
