I have felt and heard of Gods strength, and of leaning on God, but I have never known pain such as yours and my mind is scrambled by the real strength / understanding / peace you have been able to find in Him. Pulling from his words and letting them completely surround you, letting them cover you. I have also been reading Alyson's blog, and what she said in her comment made me stop in my tracks.. "Would I say that I'd *choose* to go through what I went through to get to where I'm at now? Not necessarily" It made me wonder if that is what my deal is ... I have "not fully choosen". My mind doesn't understand the level to which you both can pull on the strength of God because I haven't choosen to so decidedly. Is that to say that people who don't know real tragidy such as yours have to choose , really choose to lean on God? You guys have really made me sit up and take stock of what I call my very blessed life. Thinking that I do trust and lean on Jesus, but thinking that there is NO WAY I could deal with the tragic circumstances that you two are.. wonder how you could possible be okay right now... Do I truely trust, obey, seek, the Lord in all I do? Do I truely lean on Him, allow Him to completely guide my every day? Sadly, I don't think I do. :( Through this world on internet, FB, blogs I have found you and through Stewart's death and your story, I have begun to truely take a look in the mirror at my own faith and commitment to God. I hope everyones eyes can be opened to Him as you have and are constantly challenging mine to be. Thank you Rachel, Alyson, and Stewart... You'll never know how deeply you've touched my life...

Would I say that I'd *choose* to go what I went through to get to where I'm at now? Not necessarily. Would I trade the lessons I've learned just to walk again? I honestly don't know. But I do know. like you, I am a different person than I was 11 years ago. Wow. 11 years. It seems just like yesterday sometimes. I have found that there are moments of grief throughout this life, though they don't happen as often now. It's good to see you're blossoming and growing, learning who God wants you to be yet reflecting on the goodness that Stewart exemplified. He is missed and was an angel on earth. Though I still don't think it was fair that he was taken from you, I'm blessed to know that you continue to reflect on not only Stewart's memory but the beauty of Christ in all of this. <br /><br />I pray you continue to lean on your Shepherd during the times you need to rest by the still waters, yet dance in the fields of lilies knowing He hasn't abandoned you.
