Do y'all get tired of grieving. I surely do after 4 years. Let's pray that God would strengthen our inner selves to be overcomers with peace and new purpose to live and love in His power of victory as we look forward to spending eternity with Him and here on earth with joy. I need your prayers and you need mine.

Amen streams. With Our Lords help, I've come leaps and bounds in the last 3-4 years. I still have difficult times, but overall, I've accepted the facts as they are, and give glory to God.  |

That is so true and a goal that the Lord will help us come to. We do not want to continue to grieve. Estrangement is sad. Only God can change the hearts of our EC.
Each day is a gift from God. Let's pray one for another that we accept His mighty strength to live a victorious life. Our hope is in Him.

Most of the time, I live in a state of weird acceptance, if that makes sense. Well, except for worship on Sundays and most holidays... Even then, I don't think that it's quite the lay-on-the-bed-and-wail-for-hours-on-end grief anymore, but more like I have a quick cry and then move on with the rest of my day. I try not to let myself think about it too much, otherwise I could go down a rabbit's hole of pain.
I honestly do think this is God at work in my life. I keep hearing sermons, radio blurbs, reading blogs, etc... and they all seem to be about "What are you not really trusting God to handle in your life?" Every time I hear that I think that this is the one I want control of, but I actually have the least control of, so I pray right then to give (and re-give) the estrangement to Him.
His way is true and perfect and so not my way, but I don't think I wouldn't keep being exposed to this message if He weren't trying to remind me that He will "fix" it to His glory.
