We are enduring, and trying very hard to learn through, a very difficult trial in our lives right now.
I have struggled mightily with how to personally handle this.
As an addict, and thus a runner, I have always tried everything in my power to forget about my feelings and trials by running from them.
As a recovering addict, I am no longer running.
With feelings, at least for me, comes the need to figure out how to handle what is in front of me.
With this particular trial, the feelings are almost daily because the attacks are almost daily.
Last week as I was praying, I was once again speaking to our Father.
I was asking Him what I can possibly do to help to soften hearts and lessen strife.
It came to me very, very clearly - try to serve her.
I spoke with my husband about this impression.
He gave me his full support, as he always does.
He did, however, remind me that it is still within her agency to soften her heart, or to not.
I know this to be true.
I also know that by serving her, I will definitely soften my own.
