Right now I...

In my last post you read several "right now" statements I made the day I found out we had lost our precious baby. Those "right now" statements voiced where I was at that moment.

Right now I feel let down.
Right now I feel sorry for myself.
Right now I am angry.

I have had a hard time getting the next post together in the time line of events but I want to make a few new "right now" statements.

Right now I feel lifted up.
Right now I feel hurt and pain not only for myself but for all women who have experienced loss. I am saddened when I hear of dear sisters who have not only experienced this but experienced it alone.
Right now I have joy and hope in the midst of my pain. My anger is distant but probably not completely removed. I am praying the Lord will take that away completely.

A few days after the miscarriage I downloaded Steven Curtis Chapman's latest album that he wrote after his daughter was tragically killed. It is an amazing album. One of the songs that spoke to me is titled God Is It True (Trust Me). I can't figure out how to add the song to this post so I just posted it to facebook.

God has been good to me during these past 3 weeks. He continues to provide peace and mercy in the toughest of times.

You are precious, wonderful and loving. God is going to bless you in abundant ways and I am continuing to pray for you that He will continue to reveal to you things that could only come out through going through this pain.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4

Love you!
