This morning as I got out my Bible to read my heart felt heavy. Life was not going as I want it to. I don't understand why. There are things that have happened, chooses I have made that I know where the right thing to do. yet I feel like I'm being punished for them. It reminded me of when I found out I was expecting James.
I cried, I was not over joyed but I had peace that this was part of God's plan for us. I knew that this baby was a blessing. Then when he was a week old James went to be with God, he was taken from us. Part of me can't help but wonder what did I do wrong, why did I deserve that.
That was what was on my heart and mind as I read Lamentations 3:20-23 "I will never forget this awful time, as I grieve over my loss. Yet I still dare to hope when I remember this: The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning." (NIV)
So I praise God for His faithfulness and pray that morning will come when I can see His mercies.
