Hurting Heart

Romans 8:28

New International Version (NIV)

 ²⁸ And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who^[a] have been called according to his purpose.

This is a verse I will cling to in the coming months. I may not understand why God called home the man who I loved so much as a father for the last 7 years. The man who took me in and has loved me as one of his daughters. I absolutely hate going through the grief process. I keep wanting to ask why. Why do I have to go through this all over again? I may never know while I am on this Earth. One thing that I do know is that everything that happens is all apart of God's plan for my life. I truly believe that this tragedy is one of the reasons God sent Brittney to Thailand with me. I don't think I could go through this pain and sorrow by myself. He knew I would need someone to comfort me. Someone who knew David...even though she only spent a week with us. She is my best friend, she knows how to comfort me. I will also cling to Jeremiah 29:11. My life verse....God has a plan and a purpose. I don't yet know what that is. I know I will have a difficult road ahead of me..It has certainly been hard and I have only dealt with this pain for 12 hours..but God will be there to guide me. What a comfort that is in a time of hurting!!

Please pray for me and my family.
