God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.
Psalm 46:1-3

Some of the words in the tears...

It's gonna be worth it, it's gonna be worth it,
It's gonna be worth is all.

And even though I can't understand why this storm still blows
And even though I can't hear Your voice, I love Your rain
Even though I can't see the way up ahead, I know that You lead
Even though I can't feel Your presence now, I know I believe

It's gonna be worth it, it's gonna be worth it,
It's gonna be worth is all.

Even when my heart is torn, I will trust You Lord
Even when I feel deserted, I will trust You Lord
Even in the darkest valley, I will trust You Lord
And when my world is shattered
And it seems all hope is gone
I will trust You Lord

It's gonna be worth it, it's gonna be worth it,
It's gonna be worth is all.

I don't understand Your ways
Oh but I will give You my song
I'll give You all my praise
You hold onto all my pain
And with it You are pulling me closer
And pulling me into Your ways

You're gonna be worth it, You're gonna be worth it,
You're gonna be worth is all, I know.

Even Though - Christa Leis & Bruce Ellis
Yet I Will Praise - Andy Park
Worth It All - Rita Springer

Such beautiful lyrics. I wish that Nate were here so you wouldn't be able to relate to songs like this.

We love you so much!

Dear Rosanna,
I want you to know that I follow your blog and am often reminded to pray for you, even though I rarely leave a comment. I think I am drawn to read your blog because I know that God is speaking through you and I want to hear Him. I remembered you especially yesterday because it was 6 months since the accident. May God show you new mercies this morning and this afternoon and this evening and again tomorrow.

"I set my face as flint before you now,
My life I recommit here as I bow,
I love it when you gently kiss my brow,
And whisper, 'it's all right'."
Like You - Rita Springer

Hugs. I still wear Dave's sweats, too.

Dear Rosanna, we are thinking about you and praying for you during this week, knowing how difficult it must be. We pray that God would cover you with his shield of love and protection. Though his ways are not our ways, He will not abandon you. LOve Jamie;s mom

Dear Rosanna,

I have been following your blog for the past month or so, but have never before left a comment. As I read this latest post, I wanted to say thank you for being willing to share your feelings. I have a cousin who also lost their spouse at a young age, and I often share with her some of the words you have written. I wanted you to know that your words have touched her heart and have encouraged her also to continually trust in the Lord. Thank-you again for sharing and know that we keep you in our prayers.

Rosanna, I've been wanting to post for a while but words seem so feeble. I can't even say I understand what you are going through because I don't. I lie in bed at night and often think of you and pray. My mom (Ron's 1st cousin) also follows your blog. She and I often talk about how much we admire you and find you as an incredible woman of faith. We've cried for you. I wish I could take away your pain, but this is your soup to make. I pray the recipe is just what you need for comfort and perfect to your taste. Cook your soup for as long as you need to. You are covered in prayer as you do.
