Life on earth is a temporary assignment.
To make the best of your life, you must never forget two truths: First, compared with eternity, life is extremely brief. Second, earth is only a temporary residence. You won’t be here long, so don’t get too attached. Rick Warren
I know this truth almost all my life ~ and yet I still feel depressed, confused, uncertain, afraid. What have I got to show my family, my friends and especially my kids? Have I disappointed them somehow? I receive encouraging words of support and comfort from time to time, and yet there would be times when I feel so lost, so useless, a failure. And the approval that I long to hear from someone dear and not getting it, leaves a deep irreversible scar. I know that I should not allow anything to affect me, as long as I know that I am walking in the light of truth...easier said than done. I am fragile.
All I can do... is surrender and trust in The Lord. Thy Will Be Done!
