May they never gain this knowlege. We can consider it pure joy, yes, because our praises through the pain are perhaps the sweetest and truest, more than those offered when all is well. When we bless Him in the midst of pain and trial, it is a true sacrifice of praise. These experiences have reshaped me, restored my faith, caused me to know how much I need God, something I had lost sight of. He rescued me and gave me and my a children new life through divorce. What was meant as a curse has been turned into a blessing by our God. In our weakness, His strength and perfection become blatantly obvious and He is glorified! That is one positive outcome. But He means for more to come from our tragic situations and failures. "For I know the plans I have for you. Plans to give you hope and a future." It is exciting to watch it unfold, admittedly less so when you're in the middle of some of the darkest hours. But believe me, Lindsay, more will be revealed and you will see more and more blessing come from this hard situation. I have enjoyed reading your blog. Thanks for inviting me. I am inspired to hear of your journey, how the Lord, our Father, our Daddy, is loving you through it all. You are in good company in all this. <BR/>And here is a thought: Jesus was a wounded healer. So can we be. We who have suffered in this way are in the position to truly understand others who are going through it and need to be ministered to.
