Battles

"The only dark will be in the hearts of those that choose to not understand. Yes.... Choose. When you choose to understand you do not make judgements, you question to understand more fully what it is exactly the road we travel. You then choose to support either in words or deeds, not condemn. Just because you don't agree with something doesn't give you the right to dictate whether we have more children, and how we choose to raise the children we do have. If that train of thought were true, then it could quite possibly could mean WWII was for naught. That the ideals of the Nazis and Hitler himself were taught as truth..... And that... That would be a horror."

My friend Celeste wrote that in a comment to me about a post she tagged me in sharing about her two children with special needs.

Though no matter the battle, remember this as well:

“Then the Angel of the Lord appeared to him and said, “Mighty hero, the Lord is with you!”  “Sir,” Gideon replied.  “If the Lord is with us, why all this has happened to us?  And where are all the miracles our ancestors told us about?  Didn’t they say?  “The Lord brought us up out of Egypt?  But now the Lord has abandoned us and handed us over to the Midianites.”  Then the Lord turned to him and said, “GO WITH THE STRENGTH YOU HAVE AND RESCUE ISRAEL FROM THE MIDIANITES.  I AM SENDING YOU!”  “But Lord,” Gideon replied.  “How can I rescue Israel?  My clan is the weakest in the whole tribe of Manasseh, and I am the least in my entire family!” The Lord said to him, “I will be with you.  And you will destroy the Midianites as if you were fighting against one man.” –Judges 6:12-16

We too can win our battles. With God on our side, nothing is impossible. The darkness doesn't last forever.

Blessings!
