I know it can be so taxing. It surely is difficult to articulate the depth of this struggle isn't it? Sometimes words fail me. Sometimes it seems easier to not talk about it. But it's important that we do. Thank you for your compliment. I'm humbled by it. You have quite a way with words yourself. Maybe more than you know. Hope to catch up with you soon.

I've felt broken and empty many times myself and only God can truly speak to us there and give us comfort and assurance. I feel humbled and honored that He would speak to you through my words. Bless you too my friend. I'm thinking of you and praying the Father loves you up.Michelle Holdermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15688490279422954556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3243991121572052463.post-41715546753998110822011-11-13T10:00:55.261-05:002011-11-13T10:00:55.261-05:00This post is absolutely beautiful Michelle..it tou...This post is absolutely beautiful Michelle..it touches me today in places that need healing within my soul...my psyche. I relate so well to what you are saying...and finding that acceptance once again is where I find myself as I spend day after day in undescribable pain like the old days...long ago...but never far away. I am so grateful that I can come here and hear God speak to me through your words....especially when I have had none this week..empty and broken.
