Weary and Burdened But God Will Give Us Rest

Come to me, all ye who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon me and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. Matthew 11:25-30

I am weary but this reminds me in a time of sorrow that I am not alone. Yesterday we received the news that at 17 weeks we lost our little boy. Our hearts are breaking but we will take our rest in God.

Tomorrow morning I will enter the hospital pregnant but will leave empty handed because the Lord decided to keep our little one with him. I just need to remember that God has a plan for this time of sorrow.

  2. Thank you for the hugs. I know that without my faith I would fall apart. It's been a tough year with my mother passing, husband losing his job, and now losing the baby. I am praying for you as well as you go through similar things.
