My lesson 4 is here: http://fragments.louielovescrystal.com/calvin-phoenix/threads-of-hope-4/<br /><br />Thank you for continuing to push through these lessons and for your patience who those of us who are perpetually behind.<br /><br />The honestly in this post really reached me. I think a lot of my anger was a reaction to hurt, as well, and it was surprising to feel things I thought I had let go of rise up and again and bring up intense feelings all over again. You are right when you say it is about unmet expectations. It's just so hard to let go of them, isn't? It doesn't seem wrong to expect others to understand, but really, only God can perfectly know what we are going through.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264146773296846600.post-17114151081774978652010-03-26T16:23:50.614-07:002010-03-26T16:23:50.614-07:00I am woefully behind, but hope to catch up this we...I am woefully behind, but hope to catch up this weekend or the beginning of next week. Can I just admit that this study has been hard (though I think these are things I need to think about) and some days it's a bit overwhelming to dive into? We are approaching Ethan's first heavenly birthday and I'm realizing that there are a lot of things I just haven't dealt with yet. So crazy to me, yet I'm glad the study exists and this community of women. So, thanks for helping me tackle the hard stuff even if I don't realize I need to :)Ceciliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06295293307771882688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264146773296846600.post-4089748147306344772010-03-16T10:14:38.234-07:002010-03-16T10:14:38.234-07:00This post was tough but I finally got it done.

Thanx Kelly for everything.

I keep feeling like I'm missing something. Maybe I'm just at a different "place" or something. I am hoping to not be so late this next week. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264146773296846600.post-53081169037454977872010-03-15T17:20:53.032-07:002010-03-15T17:20:53.032-07:00Mr. MckLinky apparently does NOT like me.

I don't know if subconsciously, I remember what that was like as a baby, to be orphaned since I wasn't adopted until I was 13 mos old. I was so angry because I felt like why did the Lord do this to me. Someone told me the other day on my blog that it would never be the Lord's will to take someone at a young age, but to that I say.....well, wouldn't it though? I'm not saying He caused her death, but since He chose not to prevent it, isn't that saying it was His will for her to die at age 56?<br /><br />And I'm angry at my Dad for not being a Father to me. He ran off, got married, moved away and I don't hear from him ever. And his wife's answer is that HE would love to hear from ME. I'm tired of being the responsible one.....I want my own Dad to comfort me the way he should have. When I say I was completely alone in my grief, that is literally true. No one grieved my Mom with me or helped me through it and I am so angry over that. <br /><br />And my hurt and anger has led me to a point where I have so much anxiety that I cannot do anything that is unfamiliar or makes me the least bit nervous. I am just tired of it all and I'm ready to just forget it, because nothing is going to change it. Thank goodness for my blog friends who have been better friends to me than anyone else....that is how I know the Lord heard my prayers, because He has been faithful to send so many people to help me work through these issues, including you! Thank you so much for sharing this and helping me to know I am not alone!Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10369117008622884945noreply@blogger.com
