I ...What an absolutely adorable picture of Calvin. I have appreciated reading each one of your entries on your blogspot, but this one especially spoke to me, Kara. "The cold cement floor, temptation of taking too many sleeping pills, uncontrollable pain, desperation, Lord, have mercy! Fight this battle for us..." I first read it last night and this morning when I woke up, the Lord put the words of Prov. 3:5&6 on my mind to share with you. You are a living testimony of the truth of God's Word...through the cement floor and desperation you were feeling, HE didn't let go and somehow kept you trusting HIM to write what you did on March 7, 2011. You are acknowledging HIM and HE is directing your path! Thank you for sharing so honestly...so straight from your heart! You have encouraged and are encouraging me to remember that God's arm is never shortened nor HIS ear too heavy to hear!

Here we see David not denying his fear but trust God in the midst of it! Wishing you God's nearness at all times.

I praise God that you have known His presence in those dark times. I praise God that He is still holding your family in the palm of His hand. I praise God for the love, love and more love that I see in your family. I pray that you will continue to know His presence and be richly blessed as you, together with Darryl, serve our Lord by serving your precious family. I praise God too for all those little (& big) things that are refreshment to you. I agree with Susanna. God is Good! ALL the time (even when we don't feel like it. Love you all.KarenKTeachCambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18360213423837201954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12479427.post-35823192695553972202011-03-08T12:38:29.694-05:002011-03-08T12:38:29.694-05:00Hallelujah!!

I'm thankful that you are experiencing some relief...long stretches of sleep sure help too!<br />RachelRachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03026302962202010277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12479427.post-9992613607542106542011-03-07T19:37:21.928-05:002011-03-07T19:37:21.928-05:00My friend, you make me weep with your honesty and ...My friend, you make me weep with your honesty and your faith and your struggle all tied together. Would that we could carry some of your burden, but thank God that He is there to do just that.
