I learn so much from you each and every day. It truly amazes me. You have the most generous and loving heart...I am honestly convicted when I see the purity of your actions. Your heart is still so tender towards the loss of your Mimi. While it makes me sad for myself and for you, I am encouraged because I think just maybe you will always remember her. I pray that you do.
The other day you had kind of a boo-boo. Some skin had come up around your fingernail and it was snagging on things. It was hurting and I told you I would cut it off. You didn't want me to because you thought it would hurt. I told you that it would stop hurting once you let me cut it. In that moment I thought, how like God this is. I keep holding on to something in my life that is hurting me. He keeps telling me, "child, let me cut it off and the pain will go away." But we just keep living with the pain anyway because we are too scared to give up the control. I've been praying since then that I would stop waiting so long to let Him cut the pain (or whatever it is) out of my life. Incidentally, you did let me cut the skin off and you told me that I was right - it didn't hurt anymore. :)
I pray that in your life you will let the Father cut the sin(and pain) out immediately and not let it drag on. It's so much easier and less painful that way.
I love, love, love you.
Mama
