8 Praising Him through our tears. .

One of my dear friends lost her baby yesterday. . 
she will never meet her little one until she gets to Heaven. . . 
but oh, what a reunion that will be. . . 
with the angels rejoicing . . .
Mother and Child together again. 
But until you can hold your baby, sweet friend. . . 
Addison will be in the most loving arms of all  . . . HIS

"I find beauty in not only the beautiful things in life, but the bittersweet and sad as well. To me, there is something poignantly lovely about the human experience from its splendor to its grief. God created all our emotions, not just the happy ones, and for His good purposes. That's why a good cry can feel so good. And hitting our limits forces us to look outside ourselves for a Savior. It is in the plea, when we're at our end, that we can find that which is truly life-giving. Personally, my moments of deepest grief, deepest pain, have resulted in the most beautiful seasons in my heart. I've met God more intimately in those moments than in all the other pleasant ones combined. What isn't completely lovely about that?" ~ The Wiegands
