Why?

 
+
 
....When our world gets turned upside down,
our hearts once again sucked under in grief.....
We tend to turn toward Heaven and ask,
 
"Why?"
 
I wonder,
 
If Heaven is also turned toward us
Tears in His eyes
and on His lips,
the very same query......
 
"Why?"
 
+
 
"Jesus wept."
-John 11:35
 
For the victims of the Boston marathon massacre...
which all of us are....
Lord, hear our prayer

Be Still My Soul

Oh dear friend,
this is a question
that we all ask at
one time or another,
I believe. I hope that
in the asking and
wondering, you have
found peace, as it
sounds like you are
in a sad place.

Sending you prayers
and hugs. Be gentle
with yourself, whatever
you are facing at this
moment on the journey.
