At the time I remember saying that knowing that it was God's will was supposed to make it easier, and wondering why it didn't make it easier at all.<BR/>That wasn't entirely true, because although it didn't make it any easier at the time, God used every single aspect of it to lead me in the way that He had designed for me, even though it was so opposite of what I wanted to choose for myself. I sometimes hear God's will described as, "Exactly what we would choose if we knew all of the facts."<BR/>I know it's two years late, but I am grateful to be to the point where I can finally look back and thank Him for what He has done....including taking your family away. In hindsight, I can see His wisdom and grace fully in a way that I couldn't before, and I am able now to be fully grateful for every single thing He did.<BR/>What an amazing God......It is a good reminder to me to accept from now on the will that He ordains, based on the knowledge that someday I will look back with thankfulness that He chose to do His own sweet will instead of mine.<BR/>He is good.Nicole Hearnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13045153873097630404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026926247581034695.post-48507923110509283202007-04-04T07:13:00.000-07:002007-04-04T07:13:00.000-07:00How horrible about the rock!

I don't think that your family and vehicles mix real well, but at least it all happened after an uplifting evening :)<BR/><BR/>It's been kind of hard for us to celebrate losing you guys but God's will is indeed wonderful no matter what...I keep saying that hoping that it will soften the "blow". We sorrow and rejoice with you at the same time...seems kind of strange to say it that way, but it's true.<BR/><BR/>~NikkaeHubershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16684687165831287171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026926247581034695.post-11774280171679500622007-03-29T08:11:00.001-07:002007-03-29T08:11:00.001-07:00Congratulations to Mr. Elliott, too.......Congratulations to Mr. Elliott, too.......Nicole Hearnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13045153873097630404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026926247581034695.post-44011537898015230522007-03-29T08:11:00.000-07:002007-03-29T08:11:00.000-07:00WOW!Sounds like quite an eventful evening.Thanks f...WOW!<BR/>Sounds like quite an eventful evening.<BR/>Thanks for sharing it; it seems like you folks never lack entertainment.<BR/><BR/>:-)<BR/><BR/>We're CLOSE to selecting a name.
