The card of the month for October is
‘Saying Goodbye’. Usually those two
words bring to mind loss, sadness and sometimes tears.
As children we remember moving away from
our childhood homes and leaving our best friends behind. We just knew that we
will never get over the pain and never have another best friend. Fast forward
three months and we are doing just fine with new best friends and a whole new
life. How quickly we rebound!
As teenagers our hearts got twisted into
pretzels as we fell in love and with each break-up we listened to sad songs as
tears flowed freely lamenting what we will never have: ‘happily ever after’.
We go through life experiencing the season
of ‘saying goodbye’. We have lost
friends, husbands, parents, children, jobs, homes and the list goes on, but we
have learned to deal with each loss through tears and sadness and we get up
after each loss and keep on living. We can’t erase the memories; we never
forget the fun times, sometimes we go back into the past to remember, we visit
the gravesides, we write letters and we keep on going.
Dear friends, if you are going through a
season of ‘saying goodbye’ right now just remember that:
|
God
knows the ache in your heart. Do not allow discouragement and despair to
take over. Rest in the assurance that He understands what you are going
through. One day you will smile
again. One day you will know the reasons why. One day you will wake up and
feel like living again. From Card of the Month – Saying Goodbye
