Last weekend God spoke something very clearly to me. I've been chewing over it and thinking about it since then and decided now was the time to share with you.
As a mom, there are a lot of times when we grieve for our kids. When they make bad choices. When things don't turn out as we wished for them. When they have to struggle with issues we never would have anticipated. When we feel like we are losing them.
Because we want what's best for them. God's best. And when we don't see that happening and feel like things are out of our control, we grieve for what could have been.
And as alone and helpless as we feel sometimes, we are not alone. Because God grieves for them too. As their father, creator, lover. He too wants them to choose life and not death, to follow his ways and see his power in their lives.
But he also sees the end from the beginning. And even as he grieves with you, he is working on their hearts. To change things for his glory.
We have to learn to trust God and cling to him in our grieving. Because he understands and is the only one who can help us and our children in these trials. We are never alone.
