a little self pity

Looking through our vacation
pictures this morning
really makes me miss him.
And that makes me feel
all sorry for myself.

But then I stop, knowing
how much we're spoiled that one
single week apart can seem so tough.
Think about sending a husband to
Iraq, or being split up for work
for long periods of time.

Sure makes a week seem like
a piece of cake!

Pondering Isaiah 25:3-4
is also pretty helpful to me:
"You will keep in perfect peace
him whose mind is steadfast,
because he trusts in you.
Trust in the Lord forever,
for the Lord, the Lord,
is the Rock Eternal."

God is good, all the time.
