Love Hurts God heals, part 3
I revisited this old post today because I needed to. I have about three situations of varying degrees of stress cooking on my stove. When you note that my cook top has only 4 burners, that makes for a full, hot and messy kitchen. I am trying to stir each situation with love and faith and keep the contents from scorching the bottom or boiling over. I'm trying to add the right ingredients, at the right time and in the right order, and not sour the situations with the wrong ingredients. I think another pot is being added... Oh my!

Saying a prayer for you tonight, E.B. Yes, I know that kind of pain..and I believe you're right, love is never wasted, no matter how the chips have fallen. Mother Teresa said in one of her famous quotes, [paraphrase]"Love can hurt, love anyway....it's never been between you & them, it's between you & God "
That perspective helps me a LOT with my loved one that I struggle with. I am accountable only to God - my actions are for Him.
Sending you a hug across the miles...
May God shine His face upon you...
and grant a power outage so that those pots of stress brewing will cool waay down ; ' )
Thank you, dear ((Amy)).
I can only agree with Amy and tell you that you're in my prayers tonight too. Look after yourself and don't let your spiritual life slip in an effort to keep up with the chaos around you. God's strength will get you through these times if you let him.
Thanks, Peter, and your encouraging advice is absolutely on target!
