I've been brokenhearted, saddened by watching these families and friends that I work for slowly fall apart.
Hurting as if it was my own family being destroyed.
I look for my role in this challenge and wonder if I could've done anything to prevent this.
What is the reason for this?
What is the lesson?
I hear God speaking to me, in the people he's putting before me, in Facebook post that "click" for my situation, in blogland, and in the Sunday school lesson and sermon that followed.
Concrete solutions has been difficult to see but some words of wisdom have been comforting.
I've taken the wisdom from Sunday school's scripture:
1 I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, 2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, 3 eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Ephesians 4:1-3 (NIV)
and from our Sunday sermons from James 1 in speaking of taking great joy and perservering during trials.
I don't know if this is my trial to endure but considering how much my heart hurts for my co-workers, I will joyfully endure with them.
I don't know if this is my trial to endure but considering how much my heart hurts for my co-workers, I will joyfully endure with them.
I will come to work and give a shoulder to lean on.
I will give them all the love I have to give them in hopes of them finding the love they all had for each other before this all happened.
I will cast all my worries on Him (1Peter5:7) and remain confident in kowing that He has a plan for what is happening.
