My heart hurts...

How do you know when you have done the right thing?  My heart aches...fear has set in...but my mind, my prayers and support team and my conversations with God keep telling me I have taken the right path.

Tonight I am trying to find comfort in Ephesians 4:15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of Him who is the head, that is, Christ.  I know that you will be reading this, trying to find comfort too...but I am not sure there is any at this point...except to cling to God and to keep remembering the promises God has for us and assure yourself that indeed this decision was found in Him.

At the end of the day...as I try to relax and try to be strong, I can't.  I lost a friend, I lost a colleague, I have lost someone I do love...

God doesn't promise us a life of no pain...but he does promise us a life of love and it is out of love that I sit alone tonight...trying to find comfort in His silence and in His path...

Cheesy and very 7th grade I know...but still...well said Carrie Underwood's "Starts with Goodbye" (don't watch the videos on youtube they are dumb...


But I knew I had to do it,
And he wouldn't understand,
So hard to see myself without him,
I felt a piece of my heart break,
But when you're standing at a crossroad,
There's a choice you gotta make.
 
 I guess it's gonna have to hurt,
I guess I'm gonna have to cry,
And let go of some things I've loved,
To get to the other side,
I guess it's gonna break me down,
Like falling when you try to fly,
It's sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life,
Starts with goodbye.
