Far be it from me...Hi, I just ran across your blog. Far be it from me to preach any quick fix web messages. In October, my infant granddaughter passed away. Therefore, this verse has frustrated me a bit also. As of right now, I see it as a horizontal versus vertical issue. To look at our circumstance (looking vertical) would be to thank God FOR losing Ava. To look at our circumstances horizontally is to thank God IN the midst of (or despite) losing Ava. <br />I'll will be praying for you as I shut down the computer in a moment. If you get the chance, please say a prayer for those of us who miss Ava.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
