I slept so late last night. Actually, it was already early morning when I laid my head down on the bed. I had a task to do and it was only when Matt is asleep that I could work without interruption. I decided to bring down some of my son's old posters and replace them with new ones - bigger, more colorful and attractive posters.
Over the course of this task, I was suddenly struck with a thought that put me in a reflective mood. I was thinking of my reason for taking these old posters away and replacing them with new ones, which I believe looks better and more fitting for my son's age.
And yes, I came to realize that this must also be the reason why God took away some things from us. He only meant to replace them with better, more wonderful things.

Bless you for speaking from your beautiful heart.
What a beautiful way to look at that. Sometimes we don't understand why certain things happen- but of course it is all part of God's plan.
What a great way to look at things!!

What a wonderful way to look at it. Your post made me think of a friend who lost two children about a year apart. I think of how hard it has been for her but also how gracefully she, her husband, and their three other children, have pulled through. He did give her something new. A wonderful spirit, renewed by knowing that God is in control of all things and that He is the Giver of all things.
Awww- what a wonderful post! It's so right on, and I say AMEN to all you said :D
