I'm a generally happy person. You know - I'm the gal who makes lemonade out of lemons. Yep, pretty much me all the time. Once in a while though, I find myself sinking into sadness. For whatever reason. It could be anything - a few words said wrong, an old memory that pops up without warning, and a few other things I won't say because well, you just don't say those things out loud. At least, if you are me, you don't.
So my old friend, Sadness is visiting me tonight. Sad for lots of reasons. Sad for things I cannot change. Sad for things I cannot fix. Sad for losses in life. Sad because life is just hard. I'm grateful for my life, for the blessings I have been given, and yet there is just a tinge of sadness for the difficult things. I know everything happens for a reason. Reasons I may never ever understand here on this earth.
Father God, here I am with this sadness. Please let it run it's course and leave me with peace. Let me learn the lessons You wish me to learn. Let me use it to comfort someone else. Amen
