I am trusting God with your life and mine. And yes, we are all terminal. I am more and more aware of that fact. When it all shakes out and we are left with what is real and true--the gold standard of what matters in this life, it is that we belong to the Lord and He is our strong support. We can take comfort in that truth.

They know this beast as well as anyone and they have lots to offer. Let the dark days come and then they will go.<br />We ARE all terminal and from pain comes wisdom. The rest of us are running around oblivious to what may be going on in our bodies. you have much more wisdom than us- you are teaching us, with such grace! i hope that you can paint- and I hope that it helps!!!<br />Hugs!<br />thoughts and lots of prayers- know that they are there especially when the dark moves in.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13861364748418692061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35048108.post-42628662140342384662011-10-21T21:28:08.635-04:002011-10-21T21:28:08.635-04:00Dear Tracey,

"He is with me on the table. . ." Speaks to our deepest longing. Emmanuel, God with us. Thank you for sharing with us. We will hope in God for your healing.
