21 When my heart was grieved
...From Psalm 73:<br /><br />21 When my heart was grieved <br /> and my spirit embittered,<br /><br /> 22 I was senseless and ignorant; <br /> I was a brute beast before you.<br /><br /> 23 Yet I am always with you; <br /> you hold me by my right hand.<br /><br /> 24 You guide me with your counsel, <br /> and afterward you will take me into glory.<br /><br /> 25 Whom have I in heaven but you? <br /> And earth has nothing I desire besides you.<br /><br /> 26 My flesh and my heart may fail, <br /> but God is the strength of my heart <br /> and my portion forever.<br /><br /> 27 Those who are far from you will perish; <br /> you destroy all who are unfaithful to you.<br /><br /> 28 But as for me, it is good to be near God. <br /> I have made the Sovereign LORD my refuge; <br /> I will tell of all your deeds.<br /><br /><br />---- Stay near to God, the Sovereign Lord. He will be your refuge, He can take your anger, and He can handle Little One's rages even on the nights when you cannot.<br /><br />When we were transitioning to forever-care with our oldest, we reached a point in respite care that our social worker called 'the fog' - when the lines of affection began to be blurred for him - which is mom? which is dad? Where's home? that's when they knew it was time for him to come full time with us. I know your scenario is different. Totally. But the stability that you are providing will serve him in life more than you know, no matter the outcome. No matter what happens next, some part of him will remember that he was loved in this way. And that matters.<br /><br />Praying for you today.<br />Stephstephseefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10651078191088887064noreply@blogger.com
