Anne,

It is clear to see why you did not trust anyone, especially adults. To have all the things you experienced by 5 or 6 years old is just incredible. So many children who have been traumatized as much as you were are never able to have a healthy relationship with anyone, ever.

You got to see close and up front the imperfection that we all carry to some degree, this usually comes much later and in smaller revelations not in the landslide that was your early life. Most of us grow through our very early years believing adults know it all, especially our parents, the love, guidance and security most of our mothers and fathers provide is like another womb we are in that protects us from the hostile outside world, you never really had that.

His Peace and Comfort to you Sister,

Joe

I have to say amen to this.


--- Quote ---I have wondered if God allows things to happen to us becuase he loves us and wants us to be the best that we can be for Him and it is impossible to do that without the trial and tribulations thrown our way.
--- End quote ---

You've probably heard this, "I once heard said that time is the crucible in which God fashions, forms, and molds us.

God is getting us ready for eternity. Sometimes if you're lucky (I hate to use that word), I believe He'll give you a sneak peek into it behind the scenes into eternity.

The scenes aren't about the lights, camera and actors. It's not even about the directors. I don't even think they're about the producers. But, I tell you one thing I believe, it's all about THE AUTHOR.

Hebrews 12:2 - Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Nowadays, everybody wants their own glory. They want to take you behind the scenes. The directors and producers, everybody's competing. I believe you take away from the Movie when you show so much behind the scenes. But everybody's seeking their own glory today, and it's taking away from everything.

Anyway, I know I'm stretching it a little here. Jesus will some day get all the glory.

  How that sounds lovely.  I look at my son and watch him grow and play everyday, and smile.  I am so thankful that I have made it out of what I have overcome, and wish for my little pride and joy the best childhood that I and David can give him.  It is a wonderful thing to carry a beuatiful baby in the womb and then raise that child.  I have a confession to make, I have pride <grins> and I am indulging in it <WEG>.  And I do suppose pride goeth before a fall, becuase this little one is trying to stand on his own and he falls hard.  Poor tike.

Bev,

  Ahhh, Jesus gets the glory today, but Most of the world does not know it.  <shhh, don't burst their bubble> <smiles>

  Sincerely,

Yes, Anne, most of us live in our families believing that our parents are gods!  YOUR  baby David looks at you as such and he will  continue to do so until you show him that you are fallable and that GOD is the true GOD!  You have many more 'landmarks' so to speak to get baby David to pass in order to get past the stages that so harmed your young little life :D

 :'(Just hold onto your hearts everyone...there is more to come :-X :-X

Susan,

  I am so blessed that I will get to share with my little one about God.  I also know that eventually he will learn Mommy and Daddy makes mistakes, but no matter what we love him so much and would give our lives for him, if it was required.  I want him to never to question our love for him, and what an awesome spring board this will vault him into a greater understanding about how much God loves him.  If he knows we love him through and through, then God's love will be special indeed for him, and I wish this is something that I had growing up.

  I am so blessed, that David and I have been called to break family cycles, and everyday is a struggle, but the battles are so bittersweet, but in the end, I know who will win and I know that no matter what my son does, we will be together in eternity, and of this I am so thankful.

  Sincerely,




  Anne C. McGuire
