I've been thinking about you a lot...Dear Alisa,<br />I've been thinking about you a lot today. At church today someone shared their testimony and related an experience of seeing children suffer at the ICU up at Primary's during a time when their daughter was sick. He said, like all of us he wondered why those children had to suffer so much, and how God could let such suffering happen? Then after much prayer, he came to the conclusion that even if we don't know "WHY?" there is someone who does and always will know "WHY." God knows the "WHY?" to our suffering. He knows what we need and what we are capable of. I've often wondered why you have to go through such a difficult trial? Why does such a horrible thing have to happen to such a good person? Today I was reminded that my perspective is so limited. Our Heavenly Father does love each and every one of us, and He is there to take on our burdens for "His yoke is easy, and His burden is light." (Matthew 11:29-30)<br />I'm sorry for the long post. I guess I just wanted you to know that you aren't alone and that I'm praying for you. You inspire me to be a better person in so many ways.<br />Love you,<br />DebbieDebbie Hadleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15596868684281787356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020529311685740872.post-88402786094795576772012-05-01T13:36:16.659-07:002012-05-01T13:36:16.659-07:00Hi, Alisa.

Your mentioning the view of the stars from the Colorado Plateau reminded me of a poem I've had on my mind lately as I've thought about you and another friend of mine battling cancer. I'm sure you've heard of "Good Timber." If not - here's a link: http://holyjoe.org/poetry/malloch.htm <br /><br />You are literally and figuratively "holding counsel with the stars" now due to your experience - and you deserve it.Christianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14668706579272463979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020529311685740872.post-45361467141334547052012-04-30T17:00:48.664-07:002012-04-30T17:00:48.664-07:00Loved the family photo but most of all we Love you...Loved the family photo but most of all we Love youKathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02700421154026431025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020529311685740872.post-38339297327315186282012-04-30T15:34:51.658-07:002012-04-30T15:34:51.658-07:00Great photos!
