It's a Beautiful Trial

What is troubling you today?
What trial?
What tribulation?

Gut-gurgling grief got you paralyzed?
Has despair knocked you to your knees?
Shame?
Embarrassment?
Do you feel insecure about your decisions, yourself, your life?
Has disappointment crept in and stolen your joy?
Do you feel broken?

Moments like these provide the space and place for layers of love to be lathered on you.  Like glue. To piece you together again.

I hope that you do not feel alone in your walk of life.  You are not.

God has certainly surrounded me and my family with so many wonderful people.....parents, family, friends, church family, neighbours....and they have been my glue.  My layers of love.

With them by my side, I feel a little less broken.  A little more secure.  A little more able to move forward.  

Recently, I've been asked to speak more about this at a women's conference.  It's a beautiful thing to see how a community can cloister around a person or a family in their time of need.  It's a beautiful thing to be helped.  It's a beautiful thing to help.

"From (Christ) the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does it's work."  Ephesians 4: 16
