A Need for Hope

Little did I know a couple of years ago that when I started this blog that HOPE would be something that I would yearn for....even on a moment to moment basis as I currently do. I need Hope like I need breath. I need a Reason to want to get through, life flowers need rain. And I know that without the Lord, it's going to be more difficult and filled with a lot more pain....than if I just yield to Him in the midst of it all.

You see, just 4 months ago, we lost our little girl. Her name was Hannah Leigh. She passed away completely unexpectedly at the age of 6 weeks old. It's been quite devastating to say the least...but I pray that some day down the road, what I have been through and continue to go through, will be used to help someone else that is, has, or will be going through this very thing. The loss of a child is I believe the worst pain a person can go through, other than perhaps losing more than one child. Anyhow, I guess you can never really minister to hopeless hearts if you have never really in fact....BEEN hopeless.
