Heartache
We've all experienced it one way or another. At one time or another. It's incredible what heartache can do not only to our
hearts, but our minds. It weaves it's way into our blood and veins.
It weaves its way into our studies, our marriages, our friendships, our work, our very beings. Let's call it something other than heartache, shall we?
For if it permeates in more than one place besides our hearts, isn't it due a different name, other than just heartache? Or shouldn't we give it that much attention? It leaves us in such despair, and in
a land like we are on a patch of grass all alone, and no one will
ever come sit with us again. Similar to sitting on a lonely bench and waiting and waiting for someone, anyone to come visit us, or just say HI. It can make us desperate creatures. It creates welled tears that gush out at any given moment. It makes us feel lost, unloved, unworthy and extremely defeated. And it can come and go in waves, that, the hardest part of all. Like it's controlling us. I never thought at the age of 37 I would watch my baby child girl go through such pain. {And I never could envision how much I would be affected by it.} Such deep, embedded emotional pain that hurts so bad she nor I, can breathe. But heartache won't steal her life. It won't last. It can't last, it doesn't hold a candle to something deeper that resides where heartache tries to live. And that would be the peace and love and power of Jesus. Dark and Light can't live in the same place.
Ok, so that means, He will move in on the heartache and darkness
and bring newness. It's just a matter of time. Crazy heartache,
you have no idea what you are up against.

I can only imagine...how much worse heartache is watching your baby go through it :( praying for you both today!
Thankfully heartache only lasts a temporary time, and there will come a day when Jesus will wipe the tears of sorrow from our eyes. That's definitely something to look forward to.
