They that Sow in Tears shall Reap in Joy. Psalm126:5

The early rain and the latter rain-tears given to water the dry ground of your soul. The early rains were the tears that came in your youth, though you were embarrassed by them and did not understand what they were doing. But they opened the ground of your soul to receive impressions of My Spirit and the seed of My Word to grow silently therein. The latter rain is your present gift, again to enable your soul to receive My life-giving Word. Do not despise the tears, and do not try to delve into secrets hidden from you. Let My word grow to bring forth an abundant harvest.

This devotional didn't seem very applicable as I went in to see my first ultrasound earlier this week. Yet, it is very dear to my heart after miscarrying just a few days later. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. David and I are so grateful to be surrounded by such wonderful friends and family.

Walking beside your Lord you are asked yet again to bear pain. Yet you look to Him and see His pain as bigger and you rest.

My friend! I am so sad. I love you. I respect you (and Dave). It is with love for you and the Lord that I am praying for His perfect timing for all things.

We know the pain all too well that you and David have experienced this past week. "He gives and takes away... my heart will surely say, Blessed be your name." "I will praise you in this storm..."
Oh, Jess just keep blessing and praising Him...
We'll do PB&J sometime... I promise!
