God is so good!

[Deborah Grissam]

I won't go into a long story but just say that I got a shock from my youngest son a few days ago- it was one of those things where you have no idea what to say, what to do, how to even sit in a chair without having a heartache.  I turned immediately to the Lord- I have been praying constantly and reading Psalms, mostly for the last 2 days.  So much peace! So much better to turn things over to my son's Heavenly Father who loves him much more than I could ever.  I drove yesterday for 5 hours- my   usual response to bad news- just out in the country going nowhere - but the Lord gave me so much peace during that time.  I know that He will never leave me or my children or forsake them- He is so much more equipped to have a good plan for their lives.  Thank you Heavenly Father for always being there to listen and to comfort and to deliver us out of tough situations. 

 

I haven't talked to my son or anyone else about what happened.  I know my son is embarrassed that he was caught redhanded.  I have read on the internet from "experts" who normally say not to try to talk too soon.  I know that the according to Isaiah 54 that " all my sons will be taught by the Lord and great will be the peace of my children"  That is enough for me.  I believe and trust Him.

I am standing with you and in agreement that God will cause every aspect of these circumstances to ultimately work together for the highest and best possible outcome, in which our Heavenly Father will receive all the glory!

You did good, Mom.

Love you!

I have 3 sons and you are right. God loves them more than us. Even though my oldest is 23 I still try to "fix" him for the Lord and end up going back to appologize and give the godly response that I should have given in the first place. You are doing well to trust God even with your heartache.

Sometimes I believe that our children grow us in the Lord because we have to be an example of trust and love in front of them. Stay in faith.

God Bless all of you for your kindness and Prayers.:). Every time I think of the Lord everything calms in me. I can't imagine life without him.

So true- we would be lost without Him.
