[__ Prayer __] Prayers for Strength (or Weakness)

[Navigator]

Whew...this time of year is always tough for me. Four years ago on May 26th..so 10 days from now..my Dad passed away suddenly and without any indication of bad health. To spare you the details, I'll just say that it rocked our family's world. Surprisingly, I felt a calm for the initial phases and even into my first few years of college. But this year I've noticed that I've broken down more than once in a short amount of time....just thinking about my Dad. (I almost had TWO in one day today!) I think I bottled things up for so long and they're just starting to spill their way out...

So I pray that God gives me strength through this time, or weakness to give in to my emotions for a short while and get things out....whatever He sees fit. And I ask you all to pray that God's decision hits me right in the face.

Bet some family need you to be calm... Our emotions are God given... Dad has been gone for about 16 years i still miss him, sometimes cry, sometimes laugh, i have even been angry at him for being gone... There is a time to mourn..

Thank you reba. I honestly just don't know why it's today..it just happened. And I know it's okay to be sad sometimes..
