But God is good all the time, no matter what happens, and He works everything together for our good.<br><br>I'm also reminded of something you once e-mailed me, about a dream you had concerning me. You saw a t-rex that represented some of my struggles, and it was trying to eat me but couldn't close its mouth around me to eat me. God was holding it back, and He explained to you that He was allowing this struggle to refine me. It's been a few years since I read it, so I don't remember all the details. I printed it out and put it somewhere, and I hope I find it again sometime. Perhaps this severe trial is your t-rex that God is preventing from eating you but allowing to further refine you.Stevenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00293614066612212183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-697753428956439076.post-46669521871012825082010-07-17T09:18:04.597-05:002010-07-17T09:18:04.597-05:00Carmel, I'm printing that out and putting it i...Carmel, I'm printing that out and putting it in my journal. Thank you for calling around the world, hearing my heart, listening to my voice, and sitting in the peace with me. I love you bigger than the world. :-)Jerri Phillipshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15450601096429164734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-697753428956439076.post-24719813369581918222010-07-17T09:10:29.780-05:002010-07-17T09:10:29.780-05:00God is so amazing.

And when you embody that peace, or more, it embodies you, the world thinks you're nuts. But God is working and shining through - even if only through the cracks on the bad days. And when you hold on to it, yes, things will be, and are, ok. <br>You remind me of my Mum with the way you grasp and embody that peace. And that too is a precious gift. <br>And there was no right or wrong way to break the news. There's just what it was. What it is. And that's ok too. <br>I love you.Carmelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12386265464839947884noreply@blogger.com
