God's got this

So I thought that I didn't have anything to write about.....I was wrong. Bear with me this may be long winded.

Early in the weekend while working with a friend of mine, we were discussing some random things and I was telling her that my heart had been really heavy for some friends. I told her how I was feeling so down and sad. She suggested that I journal my thoughts. Not like "Dear Diary" but more like a prayer journal. I didn't. I should have, because my heart has continued to be heavy. Even as I have lifted those people up in prayer, I still can't shake this broken hearted feeling that I have.

So this morning I got yet more news that caused my stomach to decide that the best place for it was upside down and in my throat. I happened to be on my way to do some grocery shopping. Bad idea, the store was fairly quiet, which made things even harder. I pushed my cart through the store fighting back those stinging tears and tried to suck what snot was leaking out of my nose back into my head before it dripped on the milk. Then of course Mr D calls me and the tears just break loose. Now I definitely look like someone who escaped loony bin.

Then I said it (not sure if I said it out loud)
"God's got this"

So here I am all "Dear Diary".....My friends are hurting, my heart hurts for them. I have peace in knowing that when our hearts hurt Jesus is there. When we are at the top of peaks He is there. When we are in the valley He is there. I'm so thankful that I have a friend who is there and does all of this for me. I hope and pray that Jesus can take me and use me to be a friend like these phenomenal ladies deserve. I'm gonna try real hard to not cry anymore today, but to pray instead. If you made it to the end of this post (I'm amazed, it's not easy to follow) I'll ask you to pray for a few gals that need the prayer. God will know who they are.
