There are times in our lives that when someone will tell you something, and it literally throws your whole life out of the loop. What do you do when that news comes? When that loved one, gives you that heartbreaking news? Or when your child tells you the one thing that, that you as a parent can't even wrap your mind around? When you feel like your whole world is Falling Apart?
Do you walk away from the one person that really needs you? Because you see, their whole world is caving in. Are they feeling the Lord more than they ever did? Are you showing them that the Lord still loves them? Are you showing them that you still love them? Or are you still wrapped up in your own pity party because of the news that they just shared with you?
As Josh Wilson shares in his song:
Blessed are the ones who understand
We got nothing to bring but empty hands
Nothing to hide and nothing to prove
Our heartbreak brings us back to You
And it all seems upside down
I have been so wrapped up in my own pity party, that I haven't even taken the time to see what my loved one is going through, or how this is going to impact their life. I pray that the Lord will take over my thoughts and give me the eyes to see and the love for them that He has. Give me wisdom to direct, wisdom on how to pray and wisdom on what to say....because their whole life is getting ready to fall apart in the next few weeks.
