God chose what the world considered Broken...

Saturday's Sayings
If God Chose the Broken...

(Letter to My Friends, Family, Church, and Community)
If people do not begrudge a sweet little old lady for knitting everyday as she works her craft for her loved ones with her yarn, so too I ask myself,
Why do people begrudge child-loss grievers for daily re-knitting their damaged hearts, souls, and spirits back together after they had been unraveled beyond recognition from the first day their child was ripped from their sides?
Child-Loss Grief and Trauma
is a Daily Process,
expected to last a Life-time,
until that beautiful Day when we are
rejoined with our little ones.
rejoined with our little ones.
Please treat us with kindness,
and
at the very least,
Learn to respect
Learn to respect
what you have No Way Of Knowing:
how Unbearable
the Child-Loss Grief and Trauma process is
the Child-Loss Grief and Trauma process is
upon our severely traumatized lives
every
day.
Every.
Day.
I repeat,
You would have No. Way. Of. Knowing.
or
even
Beginning. To. Know.
Beginning. To. Know.
what we deal with,
unless you yourself also
Lost Your Child,
Lost Your Child,
and
We would Never,
Ever,
wish
that
upon
You
or
Anyone.
So please,
Just respect our process,
And know,
Always keep in mind,
There is a lot about our Child-Loss Grief and Trauma
you. will. never. know.
Be thankful for that,
And,
please
Please,
please
Please,
Love us
Where. We. Are.
Where. We. Are.
Not
Where. You. Want. Us. To. Be.
Where. You. Want. Us. To. Be.
God doesn't blame the broken
for their brokenness;
God loves the broken...
Can you?

Perfectly stated. And needed today. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteMe too, dear Amber, me too. My heart is so broken, I cannot even begin to understand what today's brokenness entails; it is something much deeper than my heart can tell me ~ It's days like this I am so very thankful God hears our heart's cry, and He knows what its groans mean... and His Son and Holy Spirit are ever imploring Him for our brokenness and daily hurt. What a loving God we serve; what a healing, loving God we need. May our Lord pour His healing blessings on your broken heart precious one... ~Much love to you and yours~
