Joys & Sorrows
How can a heart be so full? Mine is completely jam-packed this morning.
On one side, the news of a young man we loved in Honduras in November whose life has taken a difficult turn. Another young man, loved by our dear friends, also struggles beyond what a 'boy' of 13 should have to endure.
And yet, there is the hope of new life that grows in a dear, faithful friend of mine. Hope after much loss. Hope after faithfulness in adopting 2 children. Hope.
Truly living allows the depths of sorrow. Truly living invites the hope of tomorrow. Truly living... a full heart. I'll take it any day.
