Five MInute Friday--Nothing

Five Minute Friday a topic,This is the place where once a week we take the chance to just write, and not worry if it’s just right or not. Five minutes flat. Here’s how the game works: you simply stop, drop and write. Set your words free. Don’t edit them, don’t fret over them, don’t try to make them perfect. Just plan simple writing.
Please note this topic/post is not my normal cheery, encouraging
post.  Today instead of being the encourager.  I need encouraging.

Go...Nothing it's always the same.  Nothing changes.
No phone call, no text.  Oh there's the occasional. . . 'Mom
will you babysit.' Beyond that nothing. 
It seems that I've cried so many tears that nothing would be left.  But there are always more. 
There more tears cried.  The more prayers are prayed it seems that the nothingless becomes bigger.  The chasm
gets wider.  When we're together there is nothing to talk about. 
I cry more.  My heart breaks. 
And then there is Peace.  It breaks through the nothingness.
It's a Peace that pass all understanding.  Because I don't
understand.
I can only trust.  Believe and hope. 
Stop.

Shalom sister!
I am a five minute friday friend and this is the first time i am visiting your blog. What you have shared is real and I know being real with our "realness" is healthy, so you go on and share what's really in your heart and may it beat with the peace and knowing that Papa gets your realness and your sense of wonder. You are valuable in this and you are loved and you have worth and you are special! Dont forget it! Aliyah

Thanks for stopping by my place, Sherry. As I read your words, my heart aches because I know the feeling. Thankful that His peace breaks through even the most troubled, sad hearts.

Grace and peace to you today.

He brings us to a point where there is nothing but to put everything in His hands and let go and trust in Him.
Blessings dear. Cathrine xo
