Why are goodbyes so difficult? I never do goodbyes. But right now my heart feels droopy with the goodbye.... withering at the mere thought of the words I won't say. As a rule, I think goodbyes between Christians are silly. We have forever together... what's a few days, months, or years? But the goodbye has unexpectedly come knocking and took the wind out of my Captain Confident sails. Perhaps what is most disappointing of all is the realization this goodbye has taught me; I still cannot seem to trust God with my life.
"Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens"--Psalm 69:19
"From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I"-- Psalm 61:2

Oops, I wanted to edit my comment, not delete it, but I really hope we can talk soon. I want to know what is going on in your life, with this goodbye you speak of and anything else that has been happening lately. Sorry that i work late and I couldn't talk when you called the other night. I get off at 7 on Thursday, maybe we could talk then? Or maybe I'll just try to call you tomorrow at some point, even though I'm sure it will be at an inconvenient time. I love you erzebeps, and you know I'm here for you no matter what is going on!
