Vulnerable... Helpless, defenseless, powerless, weak, susceptible.
Someone I love is ready to say good-bye. No it is not a "love interest" but it is someone with whom I have shared my life with for almost 10 years. For the first time in weeks, my defense is down and I ache for the relationship that is broken. The protective wall I have built around my heart, is coming down. I pray for a miracle, a supernatural healing to take place in this dark place of the one I love. She is going to be walking a very difficult road and I won't be there to help her. She cannot see past her present situation to the glorious future she could have.
This song is about a tragic illness that occurred in a marriage. But it can also be said of a broken parenting relationship. My heart doesn't want to give up. But I am so very thankful that her Heavenly Father will be with her on the journey ahead. Mental illness, stress, anxiety and brokenness are no match for my Savior... for her Savior.
My hope, comfort and peace in this time of trial is found in Scripture.
“God can do anything, you know — far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams!” Ephesians 3:20 (MSG)He knows what He is doing. His plan for my Peanut is far greater than my plan. This trial of watching her struggle and for her, this trial of figuring out who she is, God can do anything... absolutely anything.
