The Wordsmith Journal welcomes Dawn Kidd and her wonderfully inspiring blog,
You Are Not Alone. | | Dawn Kidd. |
Everyone suffers from loss in their life at one time or another. Unfortunately, loss is a reality of life. We lose a job, the house we desperately wanted, our health, or we lose a loved one. Initially, we feel comforted by friends and family. Weeks later, we find ourselves feeling alone, in a boat in the middle of the ocean searching for that lost oar. After losing our son and daughter, I was amazed to find that I was not alone. Through my grief, I knew that God was with me. He didn't change my circumstances, he changed me through his love and grace.
~Genesis 28:15 And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.~ |
