Life

     As hard as it is, I am going to take the advice that was so rudely given to me.  "Quit feeling sorry for yourself, get over it, and move on with your life."  Through the strength and grace of my Lord and Savior, I will.  Through Him, all things are possible, even this.  With the weight of the world on His shoulders, when He  was on the cross, He could still see me & Sheila, Ashley & Jason, Natalie & Justin, Paul & Jeanette, and He knew that His grace was sufficient to heal us 
     Some of the fiery darts of the wicked get past my shield of faith and infect my soul.  The corruption comes out my mouth as character assassination and cursing.  He washes me daily and I wallow in the filth of self-pity and have to be washed again.  Just like the yard dog that gets a bath, then rolls in the dirt and has to be washed again.  All tribulation has an expiration date and this too will end.
