I agree with you whole-hardheartedly! It is very sweet to share in another's sorrow but it is also very hard not know what to do. But just them knowing that you are weeping with them and mourning with them makes the sorrow somewhat lighter and easier to carry! And in due time this sorrow will blossom into joy unspeakable with the continual sanctification of Christ!
aww..this one makes me sad! God has really given you a gift with words. I read these simple little phrases but feel so much emotion!
ReplyDeletethanks, Jenna! I appreciate your sweet comments a lot. right now the pain I feel is for others around me -- which perhaps is the sweetest sorrow.
ReplyDeletebut sometimes also the hardest sorrow.
