My God…
You have taken me on a journey through the depths of hell.
My heart has hurt with pain so intense that even now the memory of it takes my
breath away. I have cried oceans of tears and have fallen flat on my face in
deepest despair. My soul has been splintered and severed from all solace…And
yet You were there. Somehow you found me in the trenches of sorrow under the
refuse. You gently pried me free. Oh, how intensely I have known anguish! Yet,
never have I known your love so intensely. Even now as I reminisce on the past
three years, I plead with tears in my eyes that I never walk such a journey again.
I am not sure I could survive the harrowing grief again. I do not know how I
survived it in the first place, other than the fact You—and You alone—carried me
through. You held my shattered heart and gradually brought me back to life. You
gave me strength to breathe and taught me how to laugh and love again.
Thank you, God!
