Tears in the heart


What do you do when you can’t do anything? And if you could, the authority to do it is not yours?
A situation. A blow to a tender heart is like a blow to my own.
Her pain, becomes my pain.
Her darkness, becomes my quest to bring light.
But this is not my battle.
The battle is the Lord’s.
And so I do the only thing I can do,
The right thing.
I give it, and her, to God.

  2. You are so very welcome.....I wrote this about my grand daughter...some unfortunate events in her life due to unwise choices...I am glad this touches someone else. Life is full of these kind of things and I guess (well I know) we have to learn to let go, and let God. :)
